   The sword, originally named Murasakino Tsurugi (Grass-Cutting Sword), was renamed Kusanagi no Tsurugi (Grass-Cutting Sword) when Susanoo-no-Mikoto, Amaterasu's brother, used it to slay the eight-headed serpent, Yamata no Orochi. It represents martial valor and the Emperor's role as protector.
   The sword is officially enshrined at the Atsuta Grand Shrine in Nagoya. However, its physical presence has not been confirmed by non-imperial officials since the 10th century.
