Ashinazuchi and Tenazuchi are a pair of Japanese deities. They are the parents of Kushinadahime, the wife of Susanoo-no-Mikoto. The serpent killed their other 7 daughters.
Their names mean foot stroking elder and hand stroking elder respectively. They are considered Kunitsukami. They are the only two deities of the Kojiki explicitly stated as elders.
Ashinazuchi brought alcohol to Susanoo in order to kill Yamata no Orochi alongside Tensazuchi. Susanoo got the serpent drink with the alcohol and killed it for them. (wikipedia)
