The Research into the Naming of Jidipuin Northern Zhili in the Ming Dynasty—Taking Baoding and Daming Prefectures as Examples

急递铺产生于战争的需要,源自宋朝,后来机构不断完善,逐渐形成一个有系统的网络。随着急递铺设置的不断增多,对铺的命名成为必需。铺名一定程度上体现了所在地的军事功能,对其命名的规范化也有利于提高铺递之间的工作效率。同时,可以有效避免遇到问题时铺递之间责任不明与互相推诿的现象。此外,对铺名的考实也是研究明代北直隶地区急递铺的一个视角,有利于深刻了解这一机构的设置与演变。

Jidipu,which appears to meet the need of war in the Song Dynasty,gradually form a systematic network with constant improvement.With the appearance of more and more Jidipu,the naming of them becomes necessary.The naming partially reflects the military function of the locus and the standardization of the naming not only helps promote the efficiency of each Jidipu,but also avoids the unclear responsibility and buck-passing among Jidipu when there is trouble.In addition,the research into the naming of Jidipucan offer a perspective for the study of Jidipuin northern Zhili in the Ming Dynasty and help further understand the establishment and evolution of Jidipu.
