Asuka Kiyomihara Code

Asuka Kiyomihara Code

The Asuka Kiyomihara Code (飛鳥浄御原令, "Asuka Kiyomihara-ryō") refers to a collection of governing rules compiled and promulgated in 689, one of the first, if not the first collection of Ritsuryō laws in classical Japan.

The compilation started in 681, under Emperor Temmu. The Emperor died in 686, but the finalization of the Code took a few more years. It was promulgated in 689.

Although not "finalized" (not incorporating a penal code, a "Ritsu", for instance), the code already incorporated several important regulations (for instance compulsory registration for citizens), which paved the way for the more complete Taihō Code.
