Inspection tours and shifted garrison duties of army as well as the postal service were recorded in some documents in Qing Dynasty. Those assignments did need a well traffic network to accomplish, but the traffic networks seldom recorded in documents published in Qing Dynasty. The road network among cities, villages, forts, and barracks were drew in some maps in Qing Dynasty, but the position were not accuracy enough to infer the location of old paths between two walled cities in Feng-Shan Prefecture during that time. Therefore, the assumption had to be made in this study that the traffic network will not be shifted in decades unless land assembly or constructing a new road over the old path. The possible routes were digitized and overlapped on modern maps to identify the location of old paths from Japanese maps which were published in 1904 and 1928 in Taiwan under Japanese rule. There were three old paths between the old walled city and the new walled city in Feng-Shan Prefecture in Qing Dynasty. The main road of two walled cities was used to inspect army barracks and shift garrison duties among forts. The footpath of two walled cities passed the chir-shan barrack, there might be a bypath from barrack to the old walled city, this footpath became more important due to the prosperity in Fu-ding-jin and Chuan-tz-tou Port. The south-road of two walled cities was the main path from San-kuai-tsuo to the old walled city, the traveler ferried across to the opposite bank in Liou-huang-shuei ferry point as a result of no bridge across the Liou-huang-shuei river. The streets’ and lanes’ name of identified old paths were recorded during the field work for the purpose in old path conservation as well as for further researches. |
