Research Abstract |
Local government offices of the Ritsuryou system in ancient Japan had generally several sections to fullfil it's daily function. Thease sections or their facilities deserve the name of ZOUSHI. Recent excavations have revealed that a part of ZOUSHI performed a duty to requisite and store of supplies, and another part of ZOUSHI included a role of workshop or accomodations and dining facilities. Each ZOUSHI's building area was usually endoused by fences or divided by ditchs, and those buildings were arranged systematically. The arrengement of ZOUSHI belonged to provincial government offices or belonged to county government offices is divided into two types. One is a case that several parts of ZOUSHI surrounded the main political block systematically, the other is a case that each part of ZOUSHI was arranged around the main political block separately and often some parts of them were situated far from the center of local government offices. The former type is like that of central palace's ZOUSHI. But the latter type means that ZOUSHI of local government offices was not so organaized as the central government organization. The provincial government official's ZOUSHI expanded the facilities from the middle of the 8th century, and indicates a tendency to be completed. This tendency is an evidence of functional subdivisions in provincial government offices, and indicates the strengthened domination by provincial government offices.
