Shitabakamatari Shrine - Kashima

Relatively easy to understand. There is no parking lot, so you have to stop on the street to see it.

What was Kamatari in such a place?

Shimonou, Kashima, the fabric of Nakaomi's Kamafoot, has a “Kamaashi Shrine” that enshrines Mr. Nakaomi, a multi-talented school of Hitachi. Nakaomi Kamashita spent his childhood in Kazusa Yana. Kamisama's mother Chisen is the daughter of Mr. Otomo of Mourita, who is called the chief of Inagashiki of Kazusa Nozomu. Takakura Kannon is a priest of Kashima Shrine in response to the saying, “Go to Kashima and worship Niten” from Hidakami Country in Joso like Takehi Daibutsu Renbuhi. I made a sickle foot with Mr. Nakaomi. Both the paternal Taomi Namiomi and the maternal Madamita Otomo are famous families whose ancestors are Baekje ancestors. Rise to the stage. @ Masafumi Boso, Mitsuo Ogura, p144

The deities are Fujiwara no Kamatari, Michizane Fujiwara, and Ukanomitama. To quote the explanation board in the precincts, "The precincts of Kamatari Shrine have been handed down from ancient times as the birthplace of Fujiwara no Kamatari. The birthplace of Fujiwara no Kamatari is here and Kashihara, Nara Prefecture. There are two theories about the city. It is unknown when it was built, but Kashima-gun and Miyanaka, a major book on the history and geography of Hitachi, which was compiled from the Edo period to the Meiji period. There is "Kamatari-sha" in the section, and the theory that our company is the birthplace of Kamatari is introduced, and it can be seen that this area has been associated with Kamatari since the Edo period. In the precincts, there is also a stone monument called "Oori Crown Fujiwara Kokoku Residence Monument" built in 1890. Speaking of Kamatari Nakaomi (later given the surname Fujiwara), he and the Emperor Tenji (later Emperor Tenji) destroyed Mr. Soga and made the Ritsuryo nation. The protagonist of the Taika Reform (645) that was built, and the ancestor of the rise by Mr. Fujiwara later, there are probably many Japanese who have received compulsory education and do not know it (many people may have forgotten it). But). The history of our company's founding is unknown, but Kashima Jingu was originally a place where the Nakatomi clan was in the position of Omiya. Our area is comparable to the birthplace of Kamatari, but it is not strange.

It is about 1 km from Kashima Jingu. It was a very small shrine. I wonder why there is a shrine dedicated to Kamatari on the edge of the Kanto region. (Kamatari is said to have a tradition that was born after this.) Kashima Jingu, which was dedicated to a god older than Amaterasu, and Kamatari, who has undergone Taika Reform. Kashima is a very interesting place in history.

Not only Fujiwara no Kamatari Besides, the names of Sugawara no Michizane and Ugajin There is. Indeed, "God of wisdom", It is a shrine of "Enki". There is a small shrine. If you look under this shrine, There is a "snake". also, It was a "reptile god group".

Kamashita Shrine It is on the west side of Kashima Jingu Shrine. The birthplace of Kamatari Generally, it is said to be Nara prefecture, but ... Kashima is the birthplace It seems that many legends remain. Kamatari's father, Nakatomi no Mikeko He was a priest who served Kashima Jingu Shrine. Mikeko is with his wife Return home It seems that Kamatari was born in Kashima. When Kamatari was two years old In my mom's dream White fox appears [This child is for the country in the future A person who does a good job ... Grow well ...] I bestowed a sickle. The couple Believe in the white fox's announcement I want to study in the city idea… Later Kashima It seems that he headed to the city again. The sickle given by the white fox Saved as a shrine god It seems that it has been done. If you go back to the genealogy of Kamatari There is a place name around Kashima Because there are also people with names I wonder if there is a Kashima birth theory ... after that… The character "foot" of Kamatari is I'm personally interested I'm still investigating ... Ancient The characters of [foot] and [root] are Those who enter the name Those who became the deities of the shrine [Goguryeo] It is said to be a direct line It looks like What is known in Kamatari's own theory Ancient When establishing Goguryeo In the Baekje royal family who cooperated ... After the founding of Goguryeo Divided Baekje was created by going south. This Baekje royal family It is a theory that it is closely related to Kamatari. Fujiwara Toyu Place names and surnames In the southern part of the Korean Peninsula (Changnyeong Gaya) [Ratio self-fire] Hijiboru = [Fujiwara] Fujibaru and The emperor named the place of Kaya The theory that it was given to Kamatari. There is also. This shrine There was a mansion of Nakatomi no Mikeko It is transmitted to the place. The year of foundation is unknown. The god of worship [Fujiwara no Kamatari] [Sugawara no Michizane] It is [Ukanomitama]. ● The photo of the tumulus is South Korea [Changnyeong-gun] It is a group of ancient burial mounds that remain in.

According to one theory, I don't know that Fujiwara no Kamatari was born in Togoku. However, it doesn't seem to be a lie right next to Kashima Jingu Shrine. For that reason, it seems to be small for the shrine of the birthplace of Kamatari, the ancestor of Mr. Fujiwara who was extremely prosperous ... How is the truth?
