A series of numerical experiments was carried out to evaluate flood control function of a discontinuous levee system which was a variety of kasumi-levees not having levee overlaps. Experimental conditions were determined based on the dimensions of Midai River levee system which was constructed before the 16th century. The result clarified that the studied levee system of only one meter in height efficiently restricted the transverse inundation expansion up to the flood discharge of 1/30 (/year) in occurrence probability. Response of inundation expansion to levee dimension change was studied using a wide range sensitivity analysis, and the flood control strategy of those days was discussed.
