Since there is no description about the temple's founding in the "Nihonshoki" (Chronicles of Japan) nor in the "Horyu-ji Garan Engi narabini Ruki Shizai Cho" (The origin of Horyu-ji Temple and record of construction materials), many details remain unclear. |
当寺の創建については、『日本書紀』や『法隆寺伽藍縁起并流記資材帳』(ほうりゅうじがらんえんぎ ならびに るきしざいちょう)には記載がなく、不明な点が多い。 |
