“In Japan for example, during the Genroku period in the seventeenth century, Miyako is clearly recognized to be Kyoto, even though it was certain that the ‚seat of public authority‘ was Edo. In other words, if we try to specify the capital in the Edo Era from the viewpoint of a capital as conceived in the modern West, Edo is unmistakably the only one, but Edo was not Miyako.”, siehe: Hidehiro Sonoda: A Study of Miyako, in: New Era, Vol. 15, September 2000, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.
