\n It is said that the shrine was built in 1627 at the present location, which was then called Eitaijima, by an oracle. During the Edo period (1603-1867), it was popularly known as “Fukagawa no Hachiman-sama” (Hachiman Shrine in Fukagawa), and since it enshrines Hachimanjin, the god of war, it received the patronage of the Tokugawa shogunate and was worshipped as the “largest Hachiman-sama in Edo”. During the Meiji Restoration (1868-1912), the shrine was designated as an associate imperial shrine. The shrine is closely associated with sumo, as sumo tournaments were held on the grounds during the Edo period (1603-1867), and even today it is customary for a new yokozuna to dedicate a ring-entering ceremony at Tomioka Hachiman Shrine. The Monthly Festival on the 1st, 15th, and 28th of each month is a very lively event.<\/p>\n
