Abstract
I researched verious sources to determine the time when the original plan and original picture map was written. There are three plans and two picture maps of Hachiman Usa-gu shrine. The first original plan owned by Hachiman Usa-gu shrine was written in Kamakura period. The second original plan owned by Hachiman Usa-gu shrine was written in about A.D. 1427. The third plan owned by Hachiman Usa-gu shrine was written in A.D. 1535. The first original picture map owned by Hachiman Usa-gu shrine was pictured in aout A.D. 1427. The second original picture map contained with Hosokawake-Monjo was pictured in A.D. 1628. Hachiman Usa-gu shrine may have been reconstructed with the plans and the architectural Monjo in which architectural length and width was written. My paper on the architectural aspects of these plans and picture maps consist of seven parts. 1. Introduction 2. The plan in Kamakura period 3. The plan in about A.D. 1427 4. The plan in A.D. 1535 5.
