Abstract
The Ainu settlement at Nibutani in 1940 was confirmed to have had at least 35 ethnic Ainu houses and at least three ethnic Japanese houses. The architectural buildings are categorized into four types: "thatched-wall thatched-roof hipped-roof architectural structure" (Type A), "spindle-wall thatched-roof hipped-roof architectural structure" (Type B), "thatched-roof gable-roof architectural structure" (Type C), and "roof-shingle or tin-roof architectural structure" (Type D). Many ethnic Ainu people lived in Type B architectural structures, using architectural structures of Type A or Type C as barns or stables. Type D modified residential housing is considered to have become more prevalent only after 1940.
