Ikasuri Shrine (坐すわ摩ま神社じんじゃ, Ikasuri jinja, also known as Zama jinja) is a major Shinto shrine located in central Osaka, Japan. Its annual festival is on April 22. In the former modern system of ranked Shinto shrines it was an imperial shrine of the second rank or kanpei-chūsha (官かん幣ぬさ中社なかやしろ). It was also the ichinomiya of the former Settsu Province. It enshrines five kami known as ikasuri no kami or zama no kami: Ikui no kami (生井いくい神かみ), Sakui no kami (福井ふくい神しん), Tsunagai no kami (綱つな長井ながい神しん), Hahiki no kami (波なみ比ひ祇神), and Asuha no kami (阿須あず波なみ神しん); collectively known as Zamagami (座ざ摩ま神しん)

History

It was founded by Empress Jingu when she returned from the Three Han (三さん韓かん, Korea) campaign.^[1]^[2]

She was nearly shipwrecked but managed to survive thanks to praying to Watatsumi, and she made the shrine to honor him.^[2] Ikuta Shrine and Watatsumi Shrine were both also made at the same time by the Empress.^[2]
