Iwatsutsunoo (石筒之男神, in the Kojiki; 磐筒男神, in the Nihonshoki, Iwatsutsunoo) is a deity that appears in Japanese mythology. According to the Kojiki, he appears during the creation of the gods after the birth of Kagutsuchi, the god of fire, who inflicted the fatal burns on the goddess Izanami. After her death, her husband Izanagi used a sword and killed Kagutsuchi by cutting him into pieces, and from these pieces other gods emerged.
