| History | According to the Nihonshoki, when Empress Jingū made her triumphant return from her expedition to Korea there was an oracle from Amaterasu Ōmikami, the deity enshrined at Ise’s Inner Shrine. Amaterasu directed through that oracle that her aramitama—the ferocious manifestation of her spirit—be enshrined at Hirota. Jingū then instructed Hayama-hime, the daughter of Yamashiro no Neko, to worship that manifestation of Amaterasu Ōmikami, marking the origins of this shrine. |
