Research Abstract |
We studied and analyzed hour method and navigational skills from the viewpoint of oral traditions (collective wisdom or tacit knowledge). We have two types of hour method. One is an absolute measurement of time, Teiji-ho : a standard hour system in which we divide a day into 24 hours,or 12 toki. It is not affected by seasonal changes like the time of sunset or sunrise. The other is a relative measurement of time, Futeiji-ho : a temporal hour system during the Edo Period in which they divided a day into two (day and night) but not in half, then they divided each of these into 6. Since the length of daytime is not the same throughout the year, an hour differs according to the seasons and latitudes. This system had such a close relation with nature that it is quite natural for people to work spontaneously with Futeiji-ho in those days. As for navigational skills, We examined and dissected voyages and fishing operation in which people worked with abundant knowledge about geography and tidal currents. We consulted medieval travel writings (12^<th>~16^<th> century) for information on departures and arrivals. Based on those data, We tried to figure out how long it took for ships to go from one port to another, and guessed how strong the tidal currents were and the wind force was, or how oarsmen helped when they were on adverse current.
