Coloured bird's eye view map (38.3 x 52cm) with original envelope somewhat worn, folded colour map with neat washi repairs to the verso (39.2 x 127.7cm), black and white diagram (28.2 x 52.8cm), colour illustrated book (27.7 x 20cm, 28 double-folded leaves, four hole string binding, title label on front cover with minor chips).…Covers discoloured and worn but holding firmly, internally bright and clean. This collection of three historical maps, one diagram and an original envelope offers a detailed view of land use and planning in the Tsu?u region of Okayama Prefecture during the early Meiji period. The area had a long history of human habitation, with fertile soil and abundant water sources. From the beginning of the Edo period in the 17th century, land in the area was progressively reclaimed, leading to an expansion of agricultural land. The collection comprises the following five items: Detailed Map of Hayashima Shinden Village in Tsu?u County, Bitch? (???????????????) Land Division Map, untitled in Japanese Diagram of Natsukawa Village Primary School in Tsu?u County, Okayama (????????????????) Pictorial Map of Additionally Registered Lands (????????) Original envelope with title Item 1 shows the divisions of rice-growing land in Hayashima Shinden Village, with area measurements and registration numbers. Water channels are coloured in blue. Item 2 is a large map showing land divisions in an adjacent area of Hayashima, although it does not have a title. Item 3 is a diagram of a primary school established in Natsukawa at the beginning of the Meiji period, probably in the 1870s. An existing Buddhist temple and its compound were used for the school. The diagram identifies a fenced school yard, pupils? entrances to the classrooms at the rear, and a flagpole standing beside the school gate. Item 4 is a beautifully drawn bird?s-eye view map showing a settlement with a temple and shrine along a river, surrounded by mountains, forests and rice paddies. Item 5 is the original envelope, titled Hayataka Village Map, and most likely belongs with Item 4.
