History | The shrine's origins are unclear. However, there is a record noting that during the reign of the 10th emperor, Sujin, the mizugaki (the fence surrounding the shrine) was repaired, indicating that the shrine had already been established prior to this period. The deities enshrined here are the mother and maternal grandfather of the deity venerated at Kamo-wakeikazuchi jinja. |
