Content | A map of the Korean peninsula made in the Kingdom of Chōsen (Joseon era). Orihon (accordion book), color map drawn with a brush. Unlike the woodblock printing book of 1861, Uzan Island (Usando) (which South Korea claims to be Takeshima) is depicted on the map of Utsuryo Island (Ulleungdo). However, judging from its location (the original "Seikyu-zu (Cheonggudo)" map by Kim Jeong-ho was a grid map) and shape, this Usando is not present-day Takeshima. |
