Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In recent years, major new archaeological discoveries have redefined the development of towns and cities in the Japanese archipelago. The uncovering of the plans of major port towns such as Sakai, Kusado Sengen and Ichijodani, and the revealing of early phases in the development of cities su…ch as Kamakura and Hakata provide an important new resource in understanding the cultural and economic processes which shaped medieval Japan.This fully illustrated book provides a sampler of these findings for a western audience. The new discoveries from Japan are set in context of medieval archaeology beyond Japan by accompanying essays from leading European specialists.The global significance of Japanese medieval archaeology is assessed through comparing the development of towns in Japan and northern Europe. The medieval period in Japan and northwest Europe saw urban growth with towns not only providing centres of administration but also fostering economic development. The pressures which led to such growth, however, be they political or social, were universal in character. following basic requirements of food, shelter, security and spiritual nourishment, towns provided commercial infrastructures, transport and storage facilities, and the setting for trade, craft specialists and art.Chapters include The archaeology of medieval towns in Japan and europe: an introduction (Brian Ayers and Simon Kaner); Permanent urban frameworks (armature) and economic networks in northern France c.700 c.1000 (Henri Galinie); Medieval urbanism and culture in the cities of the Baltic: with a comparison between Luebeck, Germany, and Sakai, Japan (Manfred Glaeser); The development of Hakata as a medieval port town (Oba Koji); The establishment and transformation of Japans medieval capital, Kamakura (Oka Yoichiro); Ichijodani: the archaeology of a Japanese medieval castle town (Ono Masatoshi); Japanese medieval trading towns: Sakai and Tosaminato (Richard Pearson); and Medieval ceramic production in the aegean, 1100 1600 AD: some considerations in an east-west perspective (Joanita Vroom). In recent years, major new archaeological discoveries have redefined the development of towns and cities in Japan. This fully illustrated book provides a sampler of these findings for a western audience.
