Abstract
Xie Sui(謝遂)'s Zhigong Tu(職貢図),“the picture scroll of tribute to Qing (清)empire ” is composed of 301 paintings of the peoples in and around Qing empire. Every painting has its own explanation written in Manchu and Chinese. Particularly Manchu version of the explanations is worth studying ethnologically as well as linguistically.
In this paper, in order to provide information on the peoples of Amurland and Sakhalin, I will translate Manchu explanations about seven peoples of Guandong(関東) area, namely Oronco, Kilen, Kuye, Fiyaka, Kiyakara, Nadan hala, and Heje.
