This river originates in the northern foot of Mount Yakeishi in the Ou Mountains in southwest Iwate Prefecture, and flows into the Kitakami River in the northeastern part of Oshu City. It enters Ishibuchi Dam along the way, and joins the Shitomae River, Nagasawa River, and Kurosawa River. It is 27.9 kilometers long. There are ruins in various places along the river basin where Abe Sadato's clan fought using the Isawa River as a shield during the Zenkunen War. In 1617 (Genwa 3), Goto Juan diverted water from the Isawa River to build the Juan Weir, and started an irrigation project for the Isawa alluvial fan. In 1953 (Showa 28), Ishibuchi Dam was built upstream in Wakayanagi, Isawa Ward, Oshu City.

岩手県南西部、奥羽山脈の焼石岳(やけいしだけ)北麓(ほくろく)に源を発し、奥州(おうしゅう)市北東部で北上川に注ぐ川。途中石淵ダム(いしぶちだむ)に入り、尿前(しとまえ)川、永沢川、黒沢川をあわせる。延長27.9キロメートル。流域には前九年の役に安倍貞任(あべのさだとう)一族が胆沢川を盾に戦った遺跡が各所にある。1617年(元和3)には後藤寿庵(じゅあん)が胆沢川から引水して寿庵堰(ぜき)をつくり、胆沢扇状地の灌漑(かんがい)事業をおこした。1953年(昭和28)上流部の奥州市胆沢区若柳に石淵ダムが建設された。 [川本忠平] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
