Also called tajuutou ½d. A generic term for pagodas that are from three to thirteen stories. An even number of stories is never used. Pagodas with a pent roof over an aisle *mokoshi ΦK, an extension of the ground floor, are sometimes mistaken for an even number of stories. For example, the Zen style *zenshuuyou T@l, Anrakuji ΐy Hakkaku sanjuu-no-tou ͺpOd (1339) in Nagano prefecture and the famous Yakushiji Toutou ςt (early 8c) in Nara, both look like six-storied pagodas because they have mokoshi on each of the 3-stories. Three and 5-storied pagodas are common but the only 13-storied pagoda *Juusanjuu-no-tou \OdΜ, extant is at Danzan jinja kR_Π (1532) in Nara. A 7-storied pagoda exists at Eisanji hR (late Heian period) in Nara, and is made of stone. There is also a 9-storied stone pagoda extant at Joushinji, ςS, also called Jousenji ις (1230) in Kumamoto prefecture. | ||||||
