| Research Abstract |
Toyotomi Hideyoshi campaigned Kyushu in 1587. After the conquest of Kyushu, Hideyoshi gave his daimyos(lords) a vast new territory for disposal. For example, Sasa Narimasa was awarded virtually all of Higo province. Kuroda Yoshitaka, a daimyo of Harima province who joined Hideyoshi during his Sanyo campaign, took over much of Buzen province.
Taiko-kenchi (Hideyoshi's land surveying) was dramatic in its national impact. Hideyoshi controlled measures. These measures was the series of land surveys by which Hideyoshi enforced on a national scale completely new systems of land registration, tax assessment, and payment, and land tenure.
The Taiko-kenchi had primary characteristics. For example, one is every plot measurement of cultivated land, the other is determination of the individual responsible for the tax payment.
Now, Kuroda Yoshitaka entered Buzen Province, soon he surveyed the land. The land surveying started almost simultaneously with the revolt caused "ikki".
This revolt was retarded one caused by old rulers who mobilized peasants under their rule in order to maintain their retarded society. Additionally, this revolt opposited the land surveying. So, Kuroda's land surveying in 1857 was made indirectly to submit cadastral documents.
This survey noted its quality on the basis of past harvest records, and set down the name of the presumed owner. But, the cadastral register (Kenchi-cho) in 1601 noted the principaldocument for defining the membership and land holdings of the village.
