Date Shrine (Miyama Kofun)

色麻町四竈町3

A Shikinaisha (shrine listed in the Engishiki codex) enshrined atop the circular mound known as Miyama Kofun, located on the left bank of the Hanagawa River, a tributary of the Nisetsu River. It is known as one of the 'Iruma Ancient Three Shrines,' alongside Akatsuka Kashima Shrine and Ujisu Shrine.

History

It is said to have been enshrined during the eastern campaign of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro in the Enryaku era (782–806 CE). It is listed in the Engishiki Shinmyōchō (a 10th-century codex of shrine names) from the mid-Heian period as 'Date Shrine, Famous Deity of the Great Rank, in Iruma District, Mutsu Province.' When the Date clan assumed the post of Governor of Mutsu, it was renamed 'Katori Shrine,' but its name was restored to 'Date Shrine' in 1872.
