John A Stuart Posted December 5, 2007 Report Posted December 5, 2007 Good one Grey, I can just about see that as 'tsugu' after the fact. John Quote
Guest reinhard Posted December 5, 2007 Report Posted December 5, 2007 The mei reads: Echizen FU (no) ju / Hirotsugu saku The Kanji FU was added to the name of a province or a city during late Edo-period. It means something like prefecture. Being not to familiar with Japanese territorial regulations during that time, maybe someone else can help. reinhard Quote
