Abstract

Using the Kyoto lodging facilities of the Choshu clan during the early Edo period as an example, this paper seeks to make clear the spatial composition of the "shuku (or yado)", one of the important dwelling types of the samurai clans in those times. In the "joraku" rituals (periodic migrations to the old capital) during the Genna era, the daimyo stayed at various temple com- plexes in Kyoto. The following Kan'ei era, however, saw him staying at his own new residential premises, though almost all samurai warriors continued to lodge at town houses surrounding the daimyo residence. It may be said that in the Edo period, this dwelling type was common, and its principles were utilized for city planning as well.
