Abstract
The main shrine of Iwashimuzu-Hachiman shrine was built in A. D. 860, and was repaired till 1371 without the removal of a temporary shrine. But the goddess on the west side was removed in the horse-way once for all in order to be repaired in 1071. Three shrines were separate in A. D. 860. The main shrine was repaired in 1071, and then the shrines were continued. The shrine was burnt in 1140 and the continued shrine was reconstructed. At present the form of the main shrine is continued since 1140. My paper on the architectural aspects of this shrine consisti of these four parts. 1. Introduction 2. The removal of a temparary shrine. 3. The reparation in 1071. 4. Conclusion.
