日本記紀に伝えられる樹木の神。イザナギとイザナミの2神より生まれた男神とされる。

出身地:日本
ククノチは、「久久能智」と書かれる。「古事記」に登場する男神で、イザナギ命とイザナミ命の2神が国生みの後に産んだ神であると言われる。「久久」とは、草木の成長する状態を表しているとされ、クキを意味する言葉であり「智」は男性を表す接続語であるとされることから、男性の樹木を司る神であると言う。日本は樹木と深い関わりを持った生活が根付いていたため、生活を支える樹木を祀り、また神の宿る依代とされることも多かったと言われる。
Translation: A god of trees as told in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki. Considered a male god born from the two gods Izanagi and Izanami.

Place of origin: Japan
Kukunochi is written as "久久能智". He is a male god appearing in the Kojiki, and it is said that he is a god born to the two deities Izanagi and Izanami after they created the land. "Kuku" signifies the growth of vegetation, particularly the stem, while "chi" is an affix referring to a male, so it is said that he is a god who presides over male trees. Because Japan had a firmly rooted way of life deeply intertwined with trees, it is said that they worshiped the trees that supported their way of life, which were also often considered to be vessels in which the gods resided.

Nomenclature

From the Japanese 久久能智 Kukunochi, derived from 木木 kuku (archaic form of 木木 kigi, "trees") or 茎 kuki ("stem") + の no (genitive or attributive particle) + 霊 chi (archaic word for "spirit").
