	Takatori Ware
		In 1600, Nagamasa and his army of retainers, were awarded the province of Chikuzen, located on the northern coast of Kyushu, as a reward for services rendered in the battle of Sekigahara, in which Tokugawa Ieyasu and his supporters defeated Ishida Mitsunari and the supporters of Hideyoshi's heir, gaining control over the entire country.
		Kuroda Nagamasa gave Palsan the family name 'Takatori' after the site of the kiln, and changed his Korean name to the Japanese name of Hachizô.
		In any event, Nagamasa's son Tadayuki, the new lord, was incensed at Hachizô's presumptuous request, and confined him and his family to the village of Yamada (modern Yamada city) where they were forced to live with no stipend, subsisting on the sale of utilitarian wares to local residents.

		In the pst Ohori park was an inlet of Hakata Bay called "Kusagae." During the construction of Fukuoka castle, Kuroda Nagamasa reclaimed a part of this inlet and built Fukuoka Port at the foot of Mt. Aratsu and utilized the southern part of the inlet as an outer moat of Fukuoka castle.

		The Kuroda family supplied the daimyo of Chikushû – as this region was known in the Edo period (1600-1868) – and the area around their castle developed as a ‘castle town’ called Fukuoka.
		The Kuroda clan was among the daimyo families charged with guarding Nagasaki, and foreign goods in trade continued to move through Hakata throughout the Edo period.

		In 1601 Kuroda Nagamasa received a stipend of 520,000 koku and control of the prefecture of Chikuzen.
		When Kuroda Nagamasa received control of the Chikuzen fief, he built a castle near Hakata Bay that he called Maizurujo (dancing crane) or Tsurujo (crane castle).

		Translator William Scott Wilson offers us something unique with this book, first published in 1982 by Ohara.
		I can't recall any other source which includes this many specific writings on bushido (the warrior-gentleman's path)--there are 12 documents in this book, all written by different members of the warrior classes, dating from the 13th century (Hojo Shigetoki's "Message of Master Gokurakuji") to the 17th century (Kuroda Nagamasa's "Notes on Regulations").
		These writings aren't what many of us 21st century martial artists have been conditioned to expect.
