Abstract
This paper aims to clarify housing lay-out analysis through land use and land ownership in Tanekura village. I considered the factor to arrange storehouses by arranged folk houses. The following three points were clarified.
1. Wooden storehouses were arranged on owners' cultivated land 25-200m away from folk houses to check the spread of the fire.
2. In the case of some owners’ land around owners' folk houses, storehouses were constructed on the edge of owners' land within some distance from owners' folk houses. In the case of few owners' land around owners' folk houses, storehouses were constructed on the way to owners' cultivated land or on owners' land near larger cultivated land.
3. Sometimes storehouses were reconstructed. Some storehouses were reconstructed when the rice fields were expanded after 1939. In recent years, two storehouses were reconstructed on useful place because of few anxieties about the fire.
