Research Abstract	I established a hypothesis that the ancient Nutarinosaku had changed to Echigojo, then Nutarijo, and it has been buried deep in the ground of present Ouse, Yamanoshita area-previous Nutari machi, Niigata city. And I investigated and researched the literature to discover the remains of Nutarinosaku. Firstly, from 2008 to 2010, I instructed to drill five places and found ancient soil buried deep in the ground around the border: we unveiled the eastern border of the Nutarinosaku. Secondly, I investigated to discover "Chojagafusetakame" by using radar system. There is a thing called "Chojagafusetakame" in Kameike (Tortoise pond). I considered thatpossibly similar to "Kame no sekisou" at Sakafuneishi ruins in Asuka, Nara. Consequently we found the evidence of bottom of an ancient pond and crop fields after the pond was filled in. Third, I wrote four theses with new discoveries.
