Kyo no mizu is a work by Akisato Ritou who is famous for Meisho zue. The constructions in the Imperial Palace and the system of the Heian-kyo capital are explained in Kyo no mizu. In this article, we classify its printings and examine circumstances of its publication. The first edition of Kyo no mizu was published by Ogawa Tazaemon, Noda Touhachi and Yoshinoya Tamehachi. Among their printings, we find books whose imprints were corrected by pasting a piece of paper dated April 1791. This strange correction was made in a situation as follows. First, the imprint dated January 1790 was printed. However, since there was a mistake in the representation of the year, it was corrected in the way mentioned above. After that, the corrected date was actually engraved and printed. Comparing this date with the record of reconstruction of the Imperial Palace burned down in 1788, we suppose that this work was published after the reconstruction had completed. The subsequent printing with the imprint dated 1791 had an alteration in the text, and the copyright of this work was passed to Kawachiya Tasuke, Kawachiya Genshichirou, Kawachiya Kihee, Metogiya Souhachi and so on.
