Oto-tachibana-hime-no-Mikoto Imperial Tomb Shrine
茂原市本納７３８
A shrine located at the imperial tomb of Empress Oto-tachibana-hime. An ancient kofun (burial mound) remains behind the main hall (honden), and the Azuma Pond within the precincts is traditionally said to be a pit left from the excavation of the tomb.
History
According to tradition, when Emperor Yamato Takeru was on his eastern campaign, his consort, Princess Oto-tachibana, threw herself into the sea to save him from danger. In gratitude, Emperor Yamato Takeru built an imperial tomb, enshrined a comb, and planted a tangerine tree to honor her. The Kojiki and Nihon Shoki also contain descriptions regarding the establishment and origin of this imperial tomb.
