Omote-daka

Japanese: 表高 - おもてだか

〘Noun〙 The official landholding of a daimyo from the Toyotomi period onwards. It was the official landholding registered in the Bukekan and other documents, and became the standard for the military and national duties borne by the daimyo, remaining almost unchanged throughout the Edo period. The amount of the Goshuin. *Gotaku Mondou (Question and Answer about Gotaku) (mid-Edo period?) "There is a distinction between the original landholding and the approximate landholding. The original landholding corresponds to the official landholding, and the approximate landholding in the Shoho period is the same as the landholding."
