Aino-ma

Japanese: 相の間 - あいのま
Aino-ma
Refers to the space between two rooms. In shrine architecture, it refers to the space between the main hall and the worship hall, particularly the space between the front hall and rear hall in Hachiman-zukuri style and the space between the main hall and the worship hall in Gongen-zukuri style. In Gongen-zukuri style shrines, the space between the main hall and the worship hall is lowered by one step and has a dirt floor or stone paving, so it is also called the Ishi-no-ma. Kitano Shrine was rebuilt in 1607, but records show that a Ishi-no-ma existed at the end of the Heian period.

2つの部屋の間の空間をさす。神社建築では本殿と拝殿の間をいい,特に八幡造の前殿と後殿の間や権現造の本殿と拝殿の間の空間をさす。権現造の社殿では本殿と拝殿の間を一段低くして床を張り,土間あるいは石敷きとしたために石の間とも称された。北野神社は慶長 12 (1607) 年の再建であるが,記録により平安時代末期には石の間が存在していたことが知られている。
