History
In the early Heian period, during the Jogan era, the monk Gyokyo from Daian-ji Temple invited the deity from Usa Jingu (Usa Grand Shrine) and enshrined it on Mt. Otoko, located southwest of Kyoto. By the late Heian period, it received special favor from Emperor Shirakawa and came to be revered as one of the two imperial ancestral shrines, alongside Ise Jingu. It was also revered by the Minamoto clan, worshipped as a war deity, and its deity was enshrined in Hachiman shrines throughout the country.
