| Research Abstract |
The aim of investigation is to explicates the use of ferrys on the route of pilgrimage through the travel records in the late Edo period. The travel records which I gatherd can be classified into two pilgrimages ; Ise-Sangu and Saigoku Junrei. And referring from the records, it is evident that the selecting routes from each regions was traditionally modelized. 13EA02 : Of these routes, I treat of the use of Seto-Uchi, Ise-Wan and Chikubu-Shima ferrys.
The resuls are as follwes ;
1. Seto-Uchi ferry are classified into two types ; One of Seto-Uchi ferry which is used by pilgrims who live in the westword of Bingo Country in order ot arive to Osaka or Murostu etc., and the other called Komipira-Sen which set sails from Osaka or Takasago to Marugame in Sanuki Country and is used by pilgrims who live in the eastern part of Japan. the former ferry is a temporary on the order of pilgrims, the latter is a regular liner by shipping agents in Osaka or Takasago.
2. There are three routes in the ferry saild across Ise-Wan. The Pilgrims living in the eastern part of Japan make use of Sayo-no-Watashi and Tsusima-no-Watasi whose captains take some money away from them by the various illegal ways.
3. Most of pilgrims prefer the route of "Isiyama-yori-Sakauchi" to that from Chikubu-Shima Island to Chomei-ji, because the latter route is long and dangerous on sail by the seasonal strong winds.
