1. The lower-stories of the TAHO pagodas which were built in the early days have square pillars without DAIWAs, but those built after the 14th century have columns with DAIWAs. On the other hand all the upper-stories have columns with DAIWAs. The fact shows that the lower-story of TAHO pagoda was treated as a MOKOSHI in the eary days. 2. Three styles can be discerned in the KUMIMONOs of the lower-stories of TAHO pagodas, and this makes a TAHO pagoda distinct from storied-pagodas, which are uniform in style. All the KUMIMONOs of the upperstories are in MITESAKI style, and it is conspicuous that an architectural technique in the early days has been used till modern times. 3. The center-post of a TAHO pagoda is not on the foundation but on the ceiling of the lower-story, and in this respect it is different from a storied-pagoda. The columns in the lower-stories of a TAHO pagada were four in the early days. In about the 14th century a number of TAHO pagodas with tow columns in the lower-stories were built, and since the 16th century those with four columns have increased again. This is the same with a three-storied pagoda. 4. As the square eaves in the upper-story of a TAHO pagoda are supported by the colums, the construction of the KUMIMONO is very much complicated. For this reason most of the upper-stories of TAHO pagodas even in the 14th〜15th century are not in ROKUSHIGAKE style. 5. The construction method of TAHO pagodas in the earlp days is a piling-up method, which is original with a storied pagoda, but some of those built after about the 14th century are on support method. The same is true of a three-storied pagoda. But in the piling-up method which was applied to the TAHO pagodas in the early days, there is a technique which is not used in a three-storied pagoda. This is helpful in guessing the original form of a TAHO pagoda.
