Type: article

Abstract: This study clarified formation and regional characteristics of continuous eaves in front of town houses in deep snow areas in the Edo era. The formation of continuous eaves in front of townhouses can be divided into three types: feudal domain-led, townspeople-led, and naturally occurring. In addition, when considering the regional characteristics of Gangi-dōri by name based on functions of post and market, Gangi-doris can be classified as post station type (“Gangi”, “Komaya”, “Kariya”), market type (“Komise”), and post station and market type (“Eaves”).
