 It is said that the descendant of Yamato Kasanui family lived around here from ancient times. The district was named "Suge no Sato" (the place of sedge). Almost all the people around here was engaged in making sedge hats until the era of Meiji. The peak period of making hats is in the era of Edo and those who made a pilgrimage to the Ise Shrine carried it with them. The hat is nowadays contributed to the Ise Shrine at the Shikinen Sengu Festival (the periodical movement of the compound of the shrine) and the Daijosai (the great Thanksgiving Festival after the enthronement).
 The Fukae Inari Shrine's history dates back to the time when the ancestor of Kasanui family enshrined the divine spirit of Shimoteruhimeno-Mikoto and later the divine spirit of Inari Shrine was also enshrined. Toyotomi Hideyori (1593 -1615) ordered his subordinate Katagiri Katsumoto to reconstruct the shrine in the 8th year of Keicho (1603). But it was burned down in the Summer battle of  Osaka Castle.
