Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study revealed many historical backgrounds around the Kinokuniya (Sayama family)’s Dozo building (traditional storehouse) in Sawara town, Katori city, Chiba prefecture, Japan.Sayama family, the house owner was a descendant of the Minoshima marchant for ceramics, who moved from Minoshima, Wakayama of the western Japan to Sahara, the eastern Japan in the late of Edo period. Their movements revealed by the old historical documents gave us interactive information about a making history of Sawara as a commercial town, and the history of industry and economy on ceramics in a broad sense.
The Kinokuniya’s Dozo building is the oldest building in Sawara town made in 1826 (Bunsei 9), remained even after a big fire in 1892 (Meiji 25). Therefore we realize that the building is a very important areal cultural heritage in Sawara town, which was designated as the Nation's Important Preservation District for Groups of Historic Buildings.
