Outline of Final Research Achievements

I created a basic database of documents about Kamakura-fu(Moromachi shogunate's eastern provincial governing organ) that Kamakura Kubo (the principal of Kamakura-fu), Kanto-kanrei (the assistant to Kamakura Kubo) and Kamakura-fu bugyounin（bureaucrats in Kamakura-fu) issued．And I added external information of each document to the database through original investigation,survey and collection of photographs and replicas. Moreover,I confirmed and studied 224 documents issued by The 4th Kamakura Kubo Ashikaga Mochiuji inclusively.And I presented new findings such as the relation between the document styles and political situations,presumption of era of documents based on classification of Ashikaga Mochiuji's handwritten signs(Kao).Furthermore I examined and presented new findings about the rating orders of eastern area warriors in Kamakura-fu, political actions of eastern area warriors under Kamakura-fu government.
