History
The date of founding is unknown, with multiple legends suggesting it was established by Emperor Yuryaku, created by Yamato Takeru under Emperor Keikō, or built to enshrine the beloved horse of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro. In the medieval and early modern periods, theories emerged that the shrine was named after the outer ring mountains of Mount Komagatake, which were likened to various Tenjin and Chigi (heavenly and earth deities), or that the Kamakura clan enshrined it by analogy to Mount Akagi. The current head shrine in Mizusawa was newly established in 1903 CE (Meiji 36).
