Research Abstract |
This research began at my field studies in Koshikijima Island in western Kyusyu and Yaeyama Islands in Okinawa. The economic development of cash-generating agriculture had greate impact on development of fish marketing system in 18th century. Fish marchants (middlemen or wholesalers) not only tapped new markets but also opened new fishing grounds. Almost all maritime societies in western Japan had been under control of those who were from Kamigata (kinki) by 19th century. Since Meiji era, the growth of huge fishery company has had significant impact on way of life of maritime people. Some migrated to near the Korean Peninsula, some migrated to near Philippin Islands or Borneo Islands. Also from Shikoku to Arafura sea, as shell divers they settled in Northern Australia. Not all maritime people migrated for deep sea fishing activities. Some were migrant seasonal workers of big shore net fishing. But they came back their home village with some knowlege about fishing mechanism as well as ritual of good luck of fishing. FUNADAMA EBISU and KONPIRA (Deities of Sea or good catch) have been diffused to many places by migrant fishermen or fish marchants. With the decline of fishery and the spread of high-education, those maritime societies are faced with depopulalization and increase of high ratio of aged people. My final purpose of the research is to write ethnography of maritime societies with a view point of history of fishery and community development policy.
