Suzuka Gozen (鈴鹿御前) is a figure in Japanese folklore. She is described in the Muromachi era traveler's journal "Kouunkikou" (耕雲紀行), the fairytale "Tamura no Soushi" and the Hobutsushu written by Tairano Yasuyori in 1179,[1] among others. She is also referred to as Tate Eboshi (立烏帽子), Suzuka Gongen (鈴鹿権現) and Princess Suzuka (鈴鹿姫). In folklore, she is a female thief, a celestial maiden (天女), or even a female oni, and her true form, depictions, and other information are varied, but from the Muromachi era onward, the legend was mostly connected to the story of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro's oni extermination. She is often assiocated with Ootakemaru.
