Sasuke Inari Shrine

Sasuke Inari Shrine in Kamakura, Japan, founded ~1195. Sasuke Inari Shrine is dedicated to O-Inari-san, the Shinto god of rice. O-inari-san is often depicted with a few foxes — his messengers — so it’s not surprising that shrines dedicated to O-Inari-san overflow with fox statues and trinkets. As for its origins, Iso Mutsu wrote in Kamakura: Fact and Legend, “Legend relates that during the early days of the first shogun, while he was still in seclusion at Hirugashima (Izu) the fox messenger of Inari appeared to Yoritomo, predicting that the scene of his future glory lay at Kamakura; hence the erection of this shrine.”
