the origin of the name of the Ota shrine -- from the first --
from ancient times -- or -- it is said that it is coming from the place which was also
calling one of the enshrined deities and the Sarutahiko life alias Ota God also with the
thing from which what was called Ontasya changed. It is a shrine with the history referred
to as that gregariousness of Iris laevigata was looked at from the ancient times of the Heian
period by Otanosawa said to be famous also for there being gregariousness of the wildness of
Iris laevigata by which natural treasure specification was carried out in Showa 14, and for the

period that it is probably foundation of an age of late. moreover -- please take grain abundantly a

it seems that it is also called beginning of Ontasya to have deified God It seems that it became a
middle shrine of the after that top Kamo shrine, and has fitted in the present form.
