There are dispersed settlements in Iki island all around. Their beginning and actual conditions are yet unknown in detail.
In this study, the natural and the geographical features of this is land and the allotment system of land in the Edo period are investigated in relation to the settlement pattern. And it is made clear that "the land use pattern of Iki" is a set of the land use consisting of a windbreak at the back, a dwelling lot, a vegetable garden in the front and scattered farmlands.
Then the spatial and the social structures of dispersed settlements are explained : especially, the dwelling lot with the windbreak and the vegetable garden has a ecological and self-supporting order, social systems what they call "HURE" and "KOHJYUH" tie the dispersed dwellings hard and support dispersed settlements.
In conclusion their problems in planning are considered.
