Makimonos' age
Hello to everybody,
I'm searching some information about old schools (koryu) and how to know its 'age'; doing that one doubt appeared.
What was the first written makimono?
I think that the Edo period, with the Tokugawa peace, a lot of ryu were written, meanwhile, before that, the ryu where taught directly from the master, without (or with few) written help. This will be also, maybe, because the paper was not a cheap resource.
Any idea or comment about that? I'll be glad in reading yours.
Thanks.
