Mononobe Shrine (Izumo Province Ichinomiya)
大田市川合町川合1545
A Shikinaisha (shrine listed in the Engishiki) located in Otai City, Shimane Prefecture, known as the Ichinomiya (first-ranked shrine) of Izumo Province. It is characterized by its divine crest, the 'Hifuzuru' (sun-carrying crane), which originates from the descent of the enshrined deity, Umashimaji-no-Mikoto.

History
It is said that the shrine was founded in the 8th year of Emperor Keitai (circa 514 CE) on the southern slopes of Mount Yaoya, where Umashimaji-no-Mikoto was buried after passing away in Izumo Province. In the Engishiki Jinmyocho (Register of Shrine Names), it is classified as a Ko-sha (small shrine), yet it received reverence from successive feudal lords as the Ichinomiya of Izumo Province. The Kaneko family has performed the rituals for generations.
