In this paper the author gives short descriptions of the form of the landscape of a hilly district situated west of Yokohama, from the standpoint of so-called spatial distribution. The design of the landscape form, a synthetic concept, consists of complicated distributions and characteristic associations of two groups of its elements. One of the group is the surface form of the earth and the other the forms superimposed on them by activities, natural and cultural. The, former group may properly, be accepted as the distributional area. of the latter. A short analysis in this paper of the above mentioned standpoint deals with the following five phenomena: (1) The deree of surface inclination of the hill-slope. (2) The degree of relief-energy of the surface form. (3) Areal distribution of some cultural elements of landscape formation. (4) Some areal connections of elements of surface form with that of cultural groups. (5) The degree of duration of cultivated land distribution.
