Abstract
City of Kyoto, during the first half of the "Edo" period, expanded its urban area more rapidly than before. At this period, the already acomplished urban area also had re-developed, and also new urban areas were formed by having changed agricultural or barren fields into housing areas. As example, this study treats "OHTO" and "KAWARA" districts whose development had advanced by the impetus of "KAMOGAWA" new bank construction during "KANBUN" period (166-173), and has made investigations on the purpose of newly-urbanizing development of this area, and its procedure, its development subjects, etc.. As the result, I found the evidence of the presence of the specialists who practically engaged in the urbanizing development as agents of feudal lords. Also, I have made investigations on their profession as the specialist and their economical rewards. Then, having studied the constitution of one "CHO" which was formed by newly-urbanizing development, I made some reflections on the historical situation of newly-urbanized area in the urban constitution of the early modern period.
