    The only case that became Kanpei Taisha from village shrine

    Original Text

    It is a shrine dedicated to Emperor Jinmu's older brother, Hikoitsuse. It is said that visiting here with Maenomiya and Itakoso Shrine is called visiting the three shrines in Saigoku. Although it can be confirmed in the Heian period, it was originally a small village shrine, and it is the only example that it became a Kanpei Taisha shrine in the Taisho Period, and I feel the power of the Miyake at that time.

    A shrine enshrining hikogose no Mikoto, the older brother of emperor Jinmu

    Original Text

    It is one of the three shrines in Kii province. The deity is Hikogose, the older brother of Emperor Jinmu, who died of a streamer during the eastern expedition of Emperor Jinmu, and Mt. Hiyama in the back of the shrine is a grave. (Since the tomb is managed by the Imperial Household Agency, you can only see the entrance.) It was destroyed by fire by Hideyoshi's conquest of Kishu, and the shrine estate was confiscated and rebuilt in a small shrine. In the Edo period, there was no ujiko or shrine estate, but in the Meiji period, it was upgraded to Kanpei Taisha shrine due to the flow of national Shinto. When you pass through the torii gate and enter Mizugaki, is that? ...

    it's one of the three companies that visited.

    Original Text

    The main deity is Hikogose-miko, which is a shikinaisha and former Kanpei Taisha. It was originally a village shrine, but it is said that it was promoted to Kanpei Taisha in Taisho 4. It is said that Kasayama Shrine is the only shrine that has become Kanpei Taisha from a village shrine. It is one of the three shrines visited by Jingu / Kunikake Jingu, Hiyama Shrine, and Itahiso Shrine before, but on Sunday, there were many people visiting the other two places, but there were no people here.
