Ame-no-Kaguyama-no-Mikoto
History
The shrine's origins trace back to when Amatayama no Mikoto completed the divine work of developing the Echigo province and departed as a deity, after which his son built a mausoleum shrine. It is also said that during the reign of Emperor Suinin, Takamochi no Mikoto received an imperial decree to construct the shrine buildings. As the ancestral deity of Echigo's development, and as a deity who contributed to Emperor Jimmu's eastern expedition, it has been revered by warriors.
