@article{oai:kanazawa-u.repo.nii.ac.jp:00029488, author = {板垣, 英治}, journal = {日本海域研究 = Japan Sea Research Kanazawa University}, month = {Mar}, note = {In the mid-1800s, the Kaga Clan constructed seventeen fortresses in the Kaga, Noto, and Etuchu areas along the Sea of Japan coast. This study describes the location of each fortress, their size and structural composition, and also the kinds of, and the numbers of, weapons arranged within each fortress. In the Kaei period (from 1848 to 1854), old type cannons were arranged within the fortresses. However, in the Ansei period (from 1854 to 1860), these older cannons were replaced by new western type cannons in order to strengthen the fortresses` defensive capabilities against possible attack by foreign ships. This is the first research paper to describe in detail these mid-nineteenth century fortresses and the related weaponry of the Kaga Clan.}, pages = {39--55}, title = {加賀藩の火薬: IX. 17箇所の台場の規模と砲備の研究}, volume = {44}, year = {2013} }
