Hachiman Okami

History

Founded in 749 CE (Shōhō 1, Year of the Ox) as a shrine established by imperial decree under Emperor Kōken, the 46th emperor of Japan. It is said that when Waki Yasumaro was traveling to Usa Hachiman Shrine to thwart the ambitions of the monk Dōkyō, a giant boar emerged from the shrine grounds, scattering his pursuers and saving him. This event led to the shrine being revered as a deity of misfortune removal.
