"Kurama" is where Yoshitsune, under the name of Ushiwaka Maru (which he took in his youth, in a ceremony called ggenpuku,h or coming-of-age), received training in swordsmanship from the Tengu, legendary goblin spirits.
Tengu are also referred to as "Karasutengu", or "Crow goblins", because they resemble crows inappearance.
