Attempts have been made from previously by a number of investigators to classify geologically the occurrence conditions and the characteristics of landslides in Japan. In this report, landslides in the Kanto district and its vicinity (Kanagawa, Gunma, Chiba, Yamanashi and Nagano Prefectures) are investigated from the viewpoint of the geological zoning and the occurrence conditions of landslides. Landslides triggered by the continual creep movement of earth and avalanche-type landslides suddenly caused by the earthquake are studied simultaneously. Landslides due to the earthflow induced by a localized torrential downpour are ex-cluded from this study. This report consists of a part of the Geological Classification Committe reports in the Japan Society of Landslides.
