Treaty of Kakitsu

Japanese: 嘉吉条約 - かきつじょうやく
Treaty of Kakitsu

A treaty on trade between Japan and Korea established in 1443 (3rd year of Kakitsu) between Sadamori So, the lord of Tsushima Island, and the Yi Dynasty of Korea. In Korea, it is called the Kigai Treaty. After the Oei invasion, trade between Tsushima and Korea was temporarily suspended, but King Sejong's policy of peaceful trade led to the establishment of numerous trade control regulations, including the Kakitsu Treaty. The contents of the treaty included: (1) the So clan, the lord of the island, could send 50 ships to Korea every year, and (2) the So clan was given a total of 200 koku of rice and beans as annual gifts, which had been implemented since the 10th year of King Sejong's reign (1428). This treaty was an attempt by the Korean side to control trade between Japan and Korea, but it also established the system of the So clan's annual dispatch of ships, and established the So clan's exclusive position in trade with Korea.

Japanese:

対馬(つしま)島主宗貞盛(そうさだもり)と李氏(りし)朝鮮との間で1443年(嘉吉3)に定められた日朝通交の条約。朝鮮側では癸亥約条(きがいやくじょう)という。応永(おうえい)の外寇(がいこう)後、対馬と朝鮮の通交は一時とだえたが、世宗(せいそう)の平和通交による交隣政策によって、嘉吉条約をはじめ数多くの通交統制規定が定められた。条約の内容は、(1)島主宗氏は毎年50船を朝鮮に派遣できる、(2)宗氏には世宗10年(1428)以来実施されている歳賜米(さいしまい)・豆あわせて200石が与えられる、などである。この条約は、朝鮮側が日朝貿易の統制を図ったものであったが、これによって、宗氏歳遣船(さいけんせん)が制度的に確立し、朝鮮通交での宗氏の独占的立場が定まったのである。
