*''Japanese'': 柿本人麻呂 ''(Kakinomoto no Hitomaro)''

Kakinomoto no Hitomaro was a court noble and poet known for his poems in the ''[[Manyoshu|Man'yôshû]]'', and as one of the "36 Poetry Immortals" (''[[Sanjurokkasen|Sanjûrokkasen]]'').

Following his death, Kakinomoto was deified as a ''myôjin'' by imperial order. [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]] is the only other historical figure to be granted ''myôjin'' status by imperial order.<ref>Luke Roberts, ''Performing the Great Peace: Political Space and Open Secrets in Tokugawa Japan''.
