Research on Family and Village Community in Okinawa

首先，文宗是明治以后在国上地区新形成的一个宗族群体，不同于岛尻地区在世纪形成的宗族群体。其重要标志是文殊群墓，但总体上其建设滞后于文殊本身的形成。在国上，它是从20世纪30年代开始形成的。由于琉球国的地产土地狭小，所以，祖坟的继承比地产的继承更重要，继承祖坟的个人只能成为一个文殊单位，而不能成为一个雅单位。其次，琉球国的共同地产，特别是共同林，是琉球国统制政策的产物，而不是原始的时间起源。英国世纪的森林管理政策将公共森林划分为一定的社区。然而，海洋根本没有被分割，共同体没有领土，就共同财产而言，共同体似乎是政治控制的产物。

Firstly, Monchu, a lineage group, was formed newly after meiji in Kunigami region, being different from Shimajiri region, where it had been formed in 17th century. The important symbol is Monchu group grave, but generally the construction of it laggs behind the formation of Monchu itself. In Kunigami, it has been formed just since 1930s. Because of the narrow property land, the succession of ancestral mortuary tablet is more important than that of property, so that an individual who succeed it seemes to become a unit of Monchu rather than Ya.Secondly, the common property of community, especially the common forest, is a product of control policy of Ryukyu Kingdom, and it is not a primitive time origin. The common forest was devided to belong to a certain community by the forest control policy in 18th century of the Kingdom. However the sea has not been divided at all, and the community has no territory to it. As far as the common property is concerned, the community seems to be a product of political control.
