| Research Abstract |
This study is a fundamental work for understand the framework of the tributary system adopted by the Ming dynasty from the late 14th century to the early 17th century. It focused on gateways for tribute to the Ming, where missions dispatched by tributary states had to pass through, and conducted fieldwork and document investigation with central emphasis on these "peripheral" gateways rather than capital region. In addition, it focused on statistical studies for tables of tributary cases as a clue to put each tributary case into perspective, and tried to make the table of tributary cases based on Ming Shi-lu.
