Tsuchigumo
Tsuchigumo is a spider yokai. A spider bigger than an ox. A spider that can devour entire towns with ease. As a "ground spider," Tsuchigumo is clearly based on those gigantic wandering spiders we all know and love (in our houses every winter).
Tsuchigumo is also the nickname of a tribe of people who didn't swear allegiance to the emperor, since that's totally the same as being a spider.
