Staples

Japanese: ステープル
Staples
Designated markets in medieval England. They were established in England and abroad from the end of the 13th century to protect the wool industry, the main industry of England, and to make it easier to collect customs duties. In England, they were located in London, Bristol, Hull, Southampton, etc., and in continental Europe, in Antwerp, Bruges, Calais, etc. Staple merchants monopolized the distribution of goods in these places, but they lost their power with the rise of merchant adventurers in the 15th and 16th centuries.

英国,中世の指定市場。英国の基幹産業たる羊毛業を保護し,関税の徴収を容易にするために,13世紀末ごろから国内ならびに外国において設定されるようになった。国内ではロンドン,ブリストル,ハル,サウサンプトンなど,ヨーロッパ大陸ではアントワープ,ブリュージュ,カレーなどにおかれた。これらの場所で商品流通を独占したのがステープル商人であるが,彼らは15,16世紀に冒険商人(マーチャント・アドベンチャラーズ)が台頭してくるにともない,勢力を失った。
