Tango Province
Tales collected from Ōmi Province ("Ika no Woumi") and Suruga Province ("Miho Matsubara") are close to the human husband/swan spouse narrative, whereas in a story from Tango Province ("Taniha no Kori") it is an elderly couple who strand the celestial maiden on Earth and she becomes their adopted daughter to keep them company. In addition, versions collected from Omi Province also show that the celestial maiden or divine fairy character became entwined locally with Shinto deity Sugawara no Michizane.
