This paper studies about the naming of inner part of town blocks in early Edo period. Cadastral registers at the end of the 16th century show that Oku(interior) was related to the scale of town block, Ura(back) was referred to the adjacent boundary and the neighboring boundary. On the title deeds were various at the first half of 17th century. It was represented as Ura, and as Oku, and written with size, and written without size. And it was represented as Ura at the 2nd half of 17th century. It is because the boundary can be done at inner part in town blocks by then.

Boundary device, shape of block, straight line or irregularity ���� * Yohei HAYAMIThis paper deals with the formation process of neighboring boundary. Kyoto had a variety of neighboring boundaries at Edo period. This paper classified the neighboring boundary into three kinds based on fixation. The main current was vague neighboring boundaries, and bending neighboring boundaries without boundary devices, before urbanization of the 17th century. The block changed a vague neighboring boundary to a lucid device, by the process of modenization. The neighboring boundary with the ruggedness in an architectural scale was maintained as it used to be, or was replaced by a straight line neighboring boundary.
