is a Shinto shrine in Kamakura and the site of the Hidden Village of Kamakura. It is located very near the Zeniarai Benzaiten Ugafuku Shrine. ==History== Tradition holds that Sasuke Inari Shrine was created by Minamoto Yoritomo. While in exile in Izu, Yoritomo was visited in a dream by an old man from the Hidden Village of Kamakura who instructed Yoritomo of the timing to begin battling his enemies. When Yoritomo succeeded and became Shogun, he created this shrine in gratitude.〔Moriyama, p. 103〕 An alternative to this story has an Inari Fox messenger appearing in Yoritomo's dream.〔Mutsu, p. 208〕 According to Kamakura Historian Shimizu Ginzo, the hidden village that was adjacent to the shrine was the dwelling of a band of people that were the antecedents to the Ninja. The remoteness and easy defensibility provided the necessary seclusion to conduct their activities which included elimination of enemies of the Kamakura Shogunate.〔Moriyama, p. 103〕 file:Sasuke-Inari-Shrine-MainShrine.JPG|Main Shrine Building file:Sasuke Inari Shrine stairs.jpg|Stairs down from the main shrine area file:Sasuke Inari Shrine details.jpg|Small Inari statues and moss covered miniature shrines file:Sasuke-Inari-Shrine-HiddenVillageSite.JPG|View of the so-called hidden village site file:Sasuke-Inari-Shrine-OverlookingMainShrineToHiddenVillageSite.jpg|Overlooking the main shrine to the so-called hidden village site file:Sasuke-Inari-Shrine-UpperShrine.JPG|Upper shrine 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sasuke Inari Shrine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
