Mimaki-hime (御間城姫) was the legendary empress consort of Japan from 97 BC to 29 BC, and then empress dowager from 29 BC according to traditional dates.

Life

The Nihon Shoki mentions her children as Emperor Suinin, Izanomawaka, Kunikatahime, Chijitsukuyamatohime, and Yamatohiko, whereas in the Kojiki she has another child named Igahime. The Nihon Shoki also states that she had her children with Emperor Sujin before her ascension as empress consort. While the Nihon Shoki does not give a name for her father, the Kojiki gives her father's name as Prince Ohiko [ja].
