During the period when the gods descended to earth, they brought a horse, descendent of Amebuchinokoma, with them. Since there were plenty of healthy horses in the area, they built a god ranch called Kirishima-yamakouya no Kougen. The chilly weather of the area was bad for the growth of the horses, so they moved the ranch to Haruyama.
Another ranch, Sano Ranch, was burnt down by Kirishima mountian's volcanic eruption during the Tenreki period. The horses that survived this eruption escaped to Taguchi-no-Massegawara and Kawakita Mazehai. A man named Babayuusyouin gathered the horses and led them to his field. Soon after Babayuusyouin gathered the horses at Mazehai. He offered a flower to the guardian, Omaki, and brought the horses back to Haruyamano.

In 1703, the ranch was moved to Tousyou because while the ranch was at Haruyamano the horses were attacked by wolves. Legend has it that a farmer named Seizou of Ounejime spent a week fighting off the wolves.
