Suga Shrine is a Shinto shrine in Unnan, Shimane Prefecture, Japan[1]
The shrine, claimed to stand on the site of the palace Shinto deity Susanoo built after defeating the Yamata no Orochi, enshrines Susanoo, Kushinadahime, and their son Yashimajinumi.[2]
According to the Kojiki it was the first Shrine in Japan.[3] It was founded immediately after the battle when Susanoo married Kushinadahime.[4] The Shrine is also seen as the birthplace of Waka poetry.[1][3][4] After Susanoo wrote a poem about the surrounding area.[4]
The shrine is listed in the Izumo Fudoki as one of sixteen shrines in Ōhara District not registered with the Department of Divinities.[5]
