This paper is designated to discuss a few characteristics of the government organization of the Chou kings and their vassals in the Western Chou period, which spans from the end of the twelfth century B. C. to the last quarter of the eighth century B. C., a period little known to us both in historical documents as well as in archaeological discoveries. Moreover, many accounts written later than the Ch'un Ch'iu period should be carefully scrutinized if they are to be used. Thus we are basing most of our discussion on the reliable chapters in the Shang Shu 尚書, the Shih Ching 詩經, and bronze inscriptions transcribed and deciphered by modern scholars. The nature of our sources, therefore, limits the scope of our discussion and the history of political events certainly is not to be considered here. |
