Following the inception of the term sport science in 1960s, terms such as history of sport, sociology of sport, and sport psychology have also been popularly used. These are all specific disciplinary areas of study in sport science. Therefore, so far as history of sport is also going to be studied as one of the specific disciplines in this new science, it must be a prerequisite for the students of sport history to fully understand the nature of sport science. Though it is a well-recognized concept that the study of sport activities had so far studied as an area of research in physical education, it has recently been further developed from the narrowly conceptualized physical pedagoics to the broad concept of science of physical culture. As a consequence, today, it is necessary to identify the relationship existing between science of physical culture and sport science in order to pursue fruitfully the studies of history of physical education and sport. Therefore, in this brief treaties, the present author took up the problem of sport science and history of sport as shown for the title and tried to solve it from the following four points of view: 1) the relationship between sport science and science of peysical culture, 2) the origin and nature of sport science, 3) the relation between sport science and history of sport, and 4) the perspectives of history of sport as a discipline
