Research Abstract |
Based upon thorough investigation of Takeya-cho documents at Maizuru city, I made a complete catalog of those documents from early-modern times to this day. Gatsu-gyoji, who were influential town officials, played a key role in town administration as well as in establishment of Machi-Kaisho in the mid-18th century. Han (feudal domain) introduced a system of local officials (So-doshiyori) in order to counter the power of Gatsu-gyoji in the second half of the 18th century. Despite the fact that Gatsu-gyoji and So-doshiyori coexisted to develop town administration, it was Gatsu-gyoji that played a leading role in such administrations as town festivals.
