Collection of ancient wooden slips from Huangwei

Japanese: 黄薇古簡集 - きびこかんしゅう

A collection of ancient documents from within the Okayama domain compiled in 1793 (Kansei 5) by Saito Kazuoki, a feudal lord of the domain. The more than 900 documents collected in this book, dating from the end of the Heian period to the beginning of the Edo period, were in the possession of vassals, temples, shrines, and private homes within the domain. These documents are arranged by their owner in two parts, the castle and counties (Volumes 1-15) and the second part (Volume 16). Although the historical value is high, it is unfortunate that there are many misreadings and miscopyings. In 1971, an edited version, "Collection of Huangwei Ancient Documents," was published by the Okayama Prefecture Local History Research Liaison Council. [Taniguchi Sumio]

1793年(寛政5)岡山藩士斎藤一興が編集した同藩域内の古文書集。本書に収録した文書は，藩内の家臣･寺社･民家の所蔵した平安末から江戸初頭に至る900余点で，これらを城府･諸郡(巻一～十五)と後編(巻十六)に分けて，所蔵者別に配列している。史料的価値は高いが，誤読･誤写がかなりあることが惜しまれる。1971年岡山県地方史研究連絡協議会より校訂本《黄薇古簡集》が出版された。【谷口澄夫】
