Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present a reconstitution of a building from the 1557 Hinokuma-Kunikakasu-jingu main shrine. The present drawings are based on writings dated 1557, parts of the Kii-Zoku-Fudoki and the three drawings from the medieval period. We have found that the 1557 reconstruction of the main shrine (a width of 7 bay and a depth of 5 day) is one size larger than the present main shrine (a width of 5 bay and a depth of 3 bay). Further, from the Hinokumagu-Nenju-Shinjiki, written in 1399, we can infer, for example, the location of the "naigu", the "gyokuden" and the"midan". We found that the 14th century and 16th century constructions had also many points in common.
