Research Abstract |
Based on the former co-operative studies by the staff of department of geograpny in Nara Women's university (1979-1995), this research was made about castle towns in East Asia, South-east Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, West Asia and Europe, from a fiewpoint of historical geography. we used not only many research papers but various maps, air-photographs and satellite images. Main subjects of the research are as follows : (1) Spatial arrangement of Castles named Gusuku in Okinawa Island (2) Late-medieval Castles surrounded with water in Lake Biwa, Japan (3) Spatial development of castle towns in China (4) Distribution of historical ruins of oases in Turfan Basin and Tarim Basin (5) Locations of walled cities and fortresses in East Asia and south-east Asia, especially in eastern Himalayas (6) Grid-patterned cities and Hellenistic colonies in west Asia (7) Distribution of castle towns in the Netherlands and their reformation in the present In order to examine the above-mentioned subject in comparison with Japanese castle towns, we could offer many various maps and photos (in full-colored and mono-colored) in various scales all over Eurasia. We firmly believe that these maps and photos will be very usuful to comparative studies of castle towns in the future.
