This paper is a study of the new lands-Shinkawa canal and reclaimed land, which created after 1875 in the Hyogo-no-tsu. This study conducts a quantitative analysis to elucidate the actual state of land ownership. This study categorizes various landowners and reveals that: 1) Absentee landowners are presumed to be owners which have been active in the use of the new lands. 2) Local commercial entities had a significant stake in land ownership. 3) The pattern of land ownership in new lands in the Meiji period was in a transitional stage.
