History

According to shrine lore, the Onmyoji (diviner) Abe no Seimei visited this area during the Shōryaku era (990–995 CE). Recognizing the land's potential for future prosperity, he enshrined Okuninushi-no-Mikoto (the deity of land reclamation). In 1871 CE (Meiji 4), the shrine was renamed from Sōsha Jinja to Izumo Jinja, with Oyama-Yashiro-no-Kami and Hanitsuyama-hime-no-Kami as the enshrined deities (kami).
