Description

The aim of this study is to propose a new method to analyse the spacial structure of agricultural settlements. This method consists of a topographical analysis of settlement location and an elemental analysis of settlement space. Agricultural settlements in Ibaraki Prefecture were chosen for this study. The topographical analysis includes a topographic classification of the settlement location on the basis of the topographic terms which were used in old Japanese. All settlements in the study area were thus classified indicating the settlement location.<BR>The elemental analysis explains the settlement space by six composition elements such as drainage system, land use, road system, common terrain and instalations, open space, and residence. On the basis of these twelve topographic classifications of the settlement location and the six composition elements of the settlement space, the formation principles of each agricultural settlement were hypothesized.
