Also called jingoji _μ, jinguu-in _{@, jinganji _θ, miyadera {, or bettouji Κ. Buddhist
temples that were established on the grounds of Shinto shrines. Jinguu _{ (palace of the Gods) refers to a Shinto shrine, while ji means a Buddhist
temple. From the Nara period to the Meiji period, there was a certain degree of amalgamation of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. The mixture of faiths became known as *honji suijaku {nq. Since there are no extant remains of the original Buddhist temple buildings that were a part of the jinguuji plan, information is drawn from ancient drawings and old records. They show that there were several buildings that belonged to the temple, including a main hall called honjidou {n°, a pagoda, priests' quarters called *betsu-in Κ@, a 2-storied gate with a corridor attached. The main priest was called shasou Πm, a term which demonstrates his dual role: sha being a term Shito and sou a Buddhist priest. This arrangement flourished especially at Esoteric temples mikkyou jiin §³@. Early known examples include: Kehi Jinguuji Cδ_{ constructed for Kehi Daijin Cδε_ in Fukui prefecture by Fujiwara Muchimaro ‘΄qC (680-737), a vassal of Emperor Genshou ³³ (680-748); Kashima Jinguuji _{ originally built between 749-756 by the priest Mangan θ in Ibaraki prefecture; Mangan was also responsible for the construction of Tado Jinguuji ½x_{ (763) in Nara. Two rebuilt examples are Kamo Jinguuji _{ in Kyoto, and Kasuga Taisha Jinguuji tϊεΠ_{ in Nara. |
