| Description4 |
A legend in the margin of this map indicates: “green: mountains/blue: rivers and ponds/yellow: embankments/dark blue: bushes/vermilion: roads/orange: swamps/brown: dry riverbeds/white: castles.” Beside the legend, there is a note reading: “Inawashi District, jidaka (nominal yield of rice): 26,186.505 koku/naoshidaka (actual yield of rice): 36,241.006 koku.” Both values, however, were valid only within the domain, in contrast to the official value known as shuindaka, which was a common value used across Japan. Slips of paper attached to the margin of the map provide information about important figures in the 11 villages. |
