Susanoo-no-Mikoto, Amaterasu Omikami
History
The founding date is unknown, but tradition holds that a shrine enshrining Susanoo-no-Mikoto was built in 586 CE to quell an epidemic. During the Heian period, the Shingon Buddhist temple Seiju-in was established within the precincts, and Susanoo-no-Mikoto was identified with the Buddhist deity Gyūdo Ten'ō (Bull-headed Heavenly King). Following the Order for the Separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the first year of the Meiji era (1868 CE), Seiju-in was abolished, and the site was renamed Mizohata Shrine.
