Description

Kanazawa Castle in Ishikawa prefecture, Japan, has various stone walls. They were built from the end 16th century to the early 19th century. Tomuro-ishi was used in stone walls. Mt Tomuro is 8 kilometers to the southeast of Kanazawa Castle. Histograms of magnetic susceptibility of Tomuro-ishi, which are used in 16 stone walls up to the late 17th century, were classified into 4 types. From comparison with that of quarry areas around Mt. Tomuro, quarry area of each stone wall was decided. Quarry area change accords with Tomita (2013a)’s result, which was decided from the comparison of remained stone at old quarry and used stone in stone walls of Kanazawa Castle.
