Iyo Dogo Ondo Stele Inscription (伊豫道後溫湯碑文) is the earliest writing among the posthumous writings of the Suiko Court (推古朝), and overall maintains the style written in classical Chinese; only the kana (假名) notation of Chinese characters 夷 and 與 appears in some transcription of proper names. In the Iyo Dogo Ondo Stele Inscription, 城 attracts a new attention, besides 夷 and 與, the kana transcription of proper names pointed out by previous studies. The reason that 城 attracts attention is because the Chinese character 城 is pronounced as ki (キ), kana notation of 城. The seikinji 城 (キ) is replaced by diverse kana notation such as [歸/貴/城/奇/紀/基], which have several characteristics. First, all of these belong to キ (乙類, B type). Second, when arranging [歸/貴/城/奇/紀/基] according to periods, while kana transcription of later generations was all kaikohu (開口呼, open-mouth), the earliest kana transcription of [歸/貴] was hekouhu (合口呼, closed mouth). Third, according to the Mori Hiromichi’s (森博達) criteria for kana classification, most of these are kana before Group αβ, and only kana 基; キ(乙, B)」 falls under Group α; and it is presumed that the transcriber of Group α was a northern Chinese (doraijin, 渡來人, ancient migrant to Japan). In addition, as for kana 基;キ (乙, B), which was classified as Group α under the Mori Hiromichi’s classification, and kana 己;キ (乙, B), which was classified in the same way under the phonological classification (之韻3等開口, Zhi rhyme less closed open mouth ), Korean language scholars early mentioned about their association with 城 (キ). The above characteristics suggest the relationship between Korea and Japan with regard to the Chinese character of 城, and it is presumed that kana 城 (キ) was notation by doraijin (ancient migrants to Japan) from the Korean Peninsula or northern regions.
