| Submission declined on 10 October 2024 by Kline (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Homotsuwake no Mikoto (誉津別命), is the Son of Emperor Suinin, and Saho-hime.[1][2]
Birth
editIn the Kojiki, his mother had not yet given birth. As she entered her brother's palace, labour began.[2][3] The emperor was attempting to burn her brother's due to an assassination attempt, but ordered his guards turn around and let Saho-hime give birth.[2][3] Eventually the empress gave birth and told Emperor Suinin, that if he considered the child his own he could take the child himself.[2][3] Yet as the emperor goes to retrieve his wife and new born son, his wife runs away, the boy left behind. The boy is retrieved and taken away.[2][3]
Learning to speak
editThe Nihon Shoki version
editIn both the Nihon Shoki and Kojiki, there is one main myth that involves him.
By age 30 the prince did not speak and one day saw a swan, to which he finally spoke and said "what's this thing?" [1]
In the Nihon Shoki the emperor is so happy and asks someone to retrieve the swan. A man named Amano Yukaha Tana volunteers. Amano Yukaha Tana retrieves the swan, and Homotsuwake no Mikoto finally speaks. The emperor grants Amano Yukaha Tana the title of Tottori no Miyakko.[1]
