文化的背景
In Japanese folklore, the name 'Deep Mountain' is believed to refer to the mountain that gives its name to the shrine, rather than an actual geographical location. The shrine's connection to mining has also led to associations with the god of wealth and prosperity, known as the 'tsukumogami' in Shinto mythology.
歴史
The shrine was founded during the Kamakura period (1185-1333), when the area was a significant copper and lead mine.
