Abstract
The former conclusion about the present east pagoda at Yakushiji is that the core of the pagoda is a new structure erected in the Heijo capital. In this paper it is ascertained that at least the first story lean-to-roof of the extant pagoda was made from the old materials of the original pagoda in the Fujiwara capital. The main proof is that, one pillar and the roof boards of the lean-to-roof bear marks suggesting that those materials had once been used on the first story lean-to-roof unenclosed of the original Yakushiji pagoda.
