It has been suggested that the military system organized by the centralized polity of Yamato covered a wide area in Middle Kofun Period. This view is based upon the increased number of medium and small-sized tumuli which mainly yielded iron armor, but few attempts have been made to show how the iron armor came to be buried in tumuli in various parts of Japan.In order to explore this point, a systematic study is needed on the same design artifacts which made the most of armor's complicated structure. If we reveal the actual condition and the geographical distribution of those same design artifacts, then we can examine the production and circulation of iron armor concretely. In this study, therefore, the author deals with the horizontal rectangular plate armor which has been found most frequently as iron armor of Middle Kofun Period, and attempts to sort out the same design armor.The author collects the detailed data on the horizontal rectangular plate armor throughout Japan. By analyzing those data, it is clear that among the horizontal rectangular plate armor which prospered in the later phase of Middle Kofun Period, there were two types of technical trend: the trend which was influenced by the riveted tanko armor of triangular plates, and the trend which was newly formed at the stage of the mass production of the horizontal rectangular plate armor. Based upon this fact, the detailed analysis of the artifacts with similar characteristics enables us to observe the existence of the same design armor, which seems to have been the minimum unit of the production process.

有人认为，古坟时代中期，大和中央集权政体所组织的军事体系覆盖了广阔的地区。这种观点是基于主要生产铁甲的中小型古坟数量的增加，但很少有人尝试说明铁甲是如何埋藏在日本各地的古坟中的。为了探索这一点，需要对充分利用盔甲复杂结构的相同设计文物进行系统研究。如果我们揭示这些相同设计文物的实际状况和地理分布，那么我们就可以具体考察铁甲的生产和流通。因此，在本研究中，作者以古坟时代中期铁甲中最常见的水平矩形板甲为对象，试图整理出相同设计的装甲。作者收集了日本各地水平矩形板甲的详细数据。通过对这些资料的分析可以看出，在古坟中期后期盛行的水平矩形板甲中，有两种技术趋势：一种是受三角形板铆接短甲甲影响的趋势，另一种是在水平矩形板甲的批量生产阶段新形成的趋势。基于这一事实，对具有相似特征的文物的详细分析使我们能够观察到相同设计的盔甲的存在，这似乎是生产过程的最小单元。
