Total Study on Ancient Temples with Statue in Japan

我们在日本滋贺县发掘了一座名为YUKINODERA的古寺庙。经过四个季节的挖掘，我们综合了挖掘和其他研究的结果。因此，我们发表了一份题为《古代寺庙佛像研究》的研究报告。在本卷中，该项目的负责人小山Setsu认为，在古代寺庙中使用雕像的时间是从公元7世纪下半叶到公元8世纪的白穗时代和天保时代，唐初风格的影响逐渐减少。Kanekatsu Inokuma考察了制作雕像的技术和使用方法。他认为在佛塔中使用了YUKINODERA雕像，并采用了两件式模具。YUKINODERA遗址的发掘工作由冈村Hidenori Okamura， Tetsuo Hishida和Katsuhisa Takahashi进行。虽然没有找到完好的雕像遗迹，但它们提供了有关这座寺庙性质的大量重要信息。可以肯定的是，这座雕像只被用在这里的佛塔上。他们还成功地在佛塔西部地区发现了另外两座建在基石上的建筑。其中一个似乎是寺庙的讲堂。在另一个周围发现了许多陶器碎片，包括釉陶。这种陶器在这个地区非常罕见，以至于YUKINODERA的寺庙并不比日本中部地区KINAI地区的寺庙低。Sinya Isogawa重新检查了位于YUKINODERA遗址的琉球寺铜钟。他展示了它是在8世纪的天约时代制作的。龙平丸山考虑了日野河沿岸寺庙和墓室的关系。此外，清水义宏通过观察材料的横截面，检验了制作雕像的技术。

We have excavated one of ancient temples named YUKINODERA in Shiga Prefecture in Japan. After four seasons excavations we synthesized the outcome of excavations and additional studies. In consequence we issued a research report titled "The Study of Ancient Temples using buddhistic statue". In this volume Setsu Onoyama, the director of this project, maintained that the time using statue at ancient temples was Hakuho era and Tempyo era - from the second half of the 7th century to the 8th century A.D. and that gradually influence of the early Tang dynasty style decreace. Kanekatsu Inokuma examined technique of making statue and the way to use it. He thought statue of YUKINODERA was used in Stupa and two-piece moulds were adopted. The excavations at YUKINODERA site were carried out by Hidenori Okamura, Tetsuo Hishida and Katsuhisa Takahashi. Good remains of statue could not be found out, but they brought out a great deal of important informations about the character of this temple. It is sure that statue was used only in stupa here. And they have succeeded in finding another two buildings constructed on foundation stone in the western area of the stupa. One of the two seems to be a lecture hall of the temple. Around the other were found many pottery sherds including glazed pottery. This kind of pottery is so rare in this district that YUKINODERA was no lower temples than those in the central region KINAI district in Japan. Sinya Isogawa reexamined the bronze bell of Ryuoji temple which is located at YUKINODERA site. He showed it was made in Tempyo era - the 8th century. Ryuhei Maruyama considered the relation of temples and tumuli along the Hino River. In addition, Yoshihiro Shimizu examined the technique of making statue by observing the cross section of materials.
