was a village located in Higashikubiki District, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. ''Maki'' literally means "meadow", although the name of this town is written as "scroll" by a homonym to distinguish from another Maki in the same prefecture. The town had no special relationship with the other town. The village was established in 1901 by merging Kawabe, Kawakami, and Kunimi Villages. Maki had a population of 2,940 as of January 1, 2003. Etymologically ''maki'' means "meadow". On January 1, 2005, Maki, along with the town of Yasuzuka, the villages of Ōshima and Uragawara (all from Higashikubiki District), the towns of Itakura, Kakizaki, Ōgata and Yoshikawa, the villages of Kiyosato, Kubiki, Nakagō and Sanwa (all from Nakakubiki District), and the town of Nadachi (from Nishikubiki District), was merged into the expanded city of Jōetsu.〔(servinghistory.com )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maki, Niigata (Kubiki)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
