Research Abstract

The main theme aims to present a fresh image about the history of the medieval industryby the may of the historical archeology. The research of excavation at Echizen kilns(Dakenotani, Taira, Oda-machi, Fukui-ken.) reveal the following three points:
1. There existed about fifty kiln sites at Taira region, where jars and mortare were mainly produced during the period be-tween 16th and the middle 17th century. 2. Kilns were reformed to king-sized tunnel-styled ones which were more than 26 meters the full length, have the high officiency of heat and were fitted for the mass production. 3. One kiln was worked during some decades and rive kilns or so were the production unit for a century.
These demonstrate the structure of production at Echizen kilns which were controled a market over a quarter part of the Japanese Archipelago including districts from Hokuriku to Hokkaido.
