The ichinomiya of this province is not settled

2 shrines here are treated as the ichinomiya of Ise Province. Shrines that compete for the same title are called ronsha (論社). We list them all rather than picking one, and say what each claim rests on.

What the Japanese sources say

Two shrines, Tsubaki Okamiyashiro (椿大神社) and Tsubaki Nakato Jinja (都波岐・奈加等神社), call themselves the ichinomiya of Ise Province. Tsubaki Okamiyashiro presents itself as the ichinomiya of Ise Province on its official website, and for Tsubaki Nakato Jinja, Kanko Mie, the tourism site of the Mie Prefecture Tourism Federation, calls it the ichinomiya of Ise Province.

For neither of them, however, is a historical source for the title given. No primary source stating why the two hold the title side by side could be found either.

Written from Japanese sources, each quoted. The Japanese page has the same discussion with the original wording.
