Research Abstract |
This research being based on deciphering ancient administrative documents recently excavated in China, aimed to clarify the characteristic of systems that supported the territorial control of Ancient Chinese dynasties. Firstly, highly developed Han documental administration system has been well known, however, the previous studies has rarely discussed the process of such achievement. In this point of view, using wooden administrative documents before Han period, this research clarified the transition of the document administration system from Warring States to Han periods. Secondly, administrative documents in Qin-Han period has been found only in military cites, whereas in 21st century, archaeologists discovered wooden documents in civil government cites. Dealing with these new materials, this research identified the characteristics of local administrative unit Xian, which consists of xianting (prefectural court) and its subordinate bureaus in Qin period.
