History
According to the Nihon Shoki (Chronicles of Japan), Empress Jingu offered prayers to the god of Miwa at this site during her expedition to the Three Kingdoms of Korea. In ancient times, it was listed as an Engishiki-designated shrine under the name Atanachino Shrine. Locally, it is considered the oldest shrine in Japan, with traditions claiming it predates the worship of the Miwa Myojin (deity of Mount Miwa).
