Abstract This article primarily intends to reexamine the character of sangt'ien 桑田 in the Chűn-t'ien System of Pei-Wei, and to elucidate that was an equal tax on every family (in the census register system) wh...en the Chűn-t'ien System was enforced in Pei-Wei. Formerly the sang-t'ien was regarded as the public land (the land owned by the state) assigned in order to plant mulberries. But I think the sang-t'ien was the private land in the regions where mulberries were planted and silk was produced. Sometimes the sang-t'ien meant those parts of the public land which were delivered in order to plant mulberries. The Chűn-t'ien System of Pei-Wei was enforced to these private lands too. It was the land system applied to all cultivated lands of the whole country. Such a system was applied to the private land as well as to the public land, but the private ownership of land was sanctioned by a fairly large margin even after the enforcement of the system. This was the reason why the system could be enforced without resistance of powerful clans. At the same time the intention of the state power to seize the people by means of land was made obscure. Formerly the equal tax on every married couple was regarded as the fundament of the tax under the Chűn-t'ien System. But we must not neglect that besides there was an equal tax on every family. This equal tax was the far greater tax which distrerred the general public. Therefore the family tax was one of the causes of decreased population.show more
