Yatsushiro Ware is also known as Kōda Ware. Both names comes from the fact that the kilns for firing the ware were located in Kōda, Yatsushiro county. Since Meiji era pottery works have been marked with the Kōda seal, resulting in the popular use of the name Kōda Ware. Yatsushiro Ware kilns were first established in Naragi of Kōda, moving later to Hirayama in the south, before being relocated to Hinagu after Meiji.
