(Saito family document) Copy of the Wooden Noticeboard of the ban on sailing for Takeshima

As a result of the inspection of the matter of the sailing for Takeshima by Hachiemon, homeless but residing in Hamada, Matsubara-ura of Iwami Province, formerly ruled by Lord MATSUDAIRA of Suō Province, Hachiemon and others were punished severely. Takeshima, where people in Yonago of the Hōki Province used to sail for to fish, was handed over to Chōsen (Joseon) during the Genroku Era (1688 - 1704), and sailing there has been banned ever since. Since sailing for foreign countries is strictly banned, you must not sail for the island (Takeshima: present-day Utsuryo Island (Ulleungdo)) as well.
