The purpose of this project is to investigate the dynamics of maritime
transportation and communication network based on documents and the data
of historical research results such as historical documents for trade relations,
the Chinese immigrant and merchants residing abroad network using "Tosen"
ship records, trade product documents, Ryukyu diplomatic documents, media-related
documents, and ceramics excavation archaeological data in mainly early
modern times from the 17th century to the 20th century. The studies are
focused on areas such as China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Tonkin, and East
and Southeast Asia including Siam. The real data (12 documents) can be
synthesized onto the multi-layered space from the viewpoint of spatiotemporal
concept related with the paradigm of "Historical GIS." Through
these analyses, a comparison with hypotheses and verification with conventional
wisdom will be tested.
