English: As it is described that it was an achievement made by Sahei Fukushin, it could be thought that he was a close blood relative of Fukushin KISHITSU, who worked hard to revive Baekje and died in 663, two years before Shushi KISHITSU received the status, but the relation between them is still unknown in detail.
Japanese: 佐平福信の功によって、とあるため、百済復興に努めて2年前に死んだ鬼室福信の近親者と思われるが、具体的な関係は不明である。
English: Following this, as it says that about four hundred men and women from Baekje were immigrated to Kamusaki no gori District, Omi Province (latter-day Kanzaki District [Shiga Prefecture]), it is possible that Shushi were there, too.
Japanese: 書紀はこれに続けて百済の男女400余人が近江国神前郡（後の神崎郡(滋賀県)）に住まわされたと記すので、集斯も同じと推定できる。
English: In 669, about seven hundred men and women, including Sahei Yojishin (Sahei is the highest officer in Baekje) and Sahei Shushi KISHITSU, were transplanted to Gamo District, Omi Province.
Japanese: 天智天皇8年（669年）に、佐平余自信と佐平鬼室集斯ら男女700余人が近江国蒲生郡に遷された。
English: In January 671, Shushi KISHITSU was given the rank of Shokinge.
Japanese: 天智天皇10年1月（671年）に、鬼室集斯は小錦下の冠位を与えられた。
English: Yukio HISAKI says that Shushi became a director after the establishment of what became a prototype of Daigakuryo (Bureau of Education) in about a little more than one year, from when he moved to Gamo District to the time of his investiture.
Japanese: 久木幸男は集斯が蒲生郡に移されてから、この時の叙任までの約1年余りのうちに日本の大学寮の原型が成立して、集斯がその長になったとする説を唱えている。
English: In the Edo period, an octagonal prism made of stone was found in a shrine called Nishinomiya-Jinja Shrine in Ono Village, Gamo District, Omi Province (present-day Ono [Shiga Prefecture] Hino-cho, Shiga Prefecture).
Japanese: 江戸時代に、近江国蒲生郡小野村（現在の滋賀県日野町(滋賀県)小野）の西宮という神社で、石の八角柱が見つかった。
English: The surface of the prism on which a sentence, 'A Tomb of Shushi Kishitsu', was inscribed is a front side, and sentences 'He died on November 8, in the third year of Akamidori era' and 'made by Shoson (referring to a grandchild born out of wedlock) 美成' were respectively inscribed on the right and left sides.
Japanese: 「鬼室集斯墓」と記した面が正面で、その右の面に「朱鳥三年戊子十一月八日殂」、左には「庶孫美成造」と書かれていた。
English: However, it is after the eleventh century that the gravestone was built though the third year of Akamidori era corresponds to 688 in the Western calendar.
Japanese: 朱鳥3年は、持統天皇2年（688年）にあたるが、ただしこの墓石は11世紀以降のものである。
English: In addition, it supports the description of the "Nihonshoki" that tateanajukyo (a pit dwelling house) including the structural remnants of the smoke path of rocks arrangement like a Korean floor heater was excavated from the ruins of Nodamichi (the late seventh century) in 1994 in Oazaterajiri, Hino-cho (Shiga Prefecture), the same town as Kishitsu-Jinja Shrine.
Japanese: なお、1994年には、同じ日野町(滋賀県)の大字寺尻にある野田道遺跡（7世紀後半）から、オンドルとよく似た石組み煙道の遺構を伴う竪穴住居跡が出土しており、『日本書紀』の記述を裏付けるものと見られている。
