Daedongyeojido
Daedongyeojido (also Daedong yeojido, (朝鮮語:대동여지도, 大東輿地圖), lit. "The Great Map of the East Land") is a large scale map of Korea produced by Chosun Dynasty cartographer and geologist Kim Jeong-ho in 1861.〔 A second edition was printed in 1864.〔 One source describes it as the "oldest map in Korea".〔 Daedongyeojido is considered very advanced for its time, and marks the zenith of pre-modern Korean cartography.〔
==Description==
The map consists of 22 separate, foldable booklets, each covering approximately (north-south) by (east-west). Combined, they form an map of Korea that is wide and long.〔 The scale of the map is 1:162,000.〔 The map was printed from 70 basswood woodblocks, engraved on both sides.〔 The techniques to create the map have been described as a hybrid of Korean and Western methods.〔
The map is praised for precise delineations of mountain ridges, waterways, and transportation routes. It also has markings for settlements, including villages, as well as notable administrative and cultural areas and sites, such as past and present government offices and military sites, public warehouses, government horse ranches, beacon fire mounds, and royal tombs.〔〔
Several versions of the map exist, with some variations (such as the number of booklets, either 21 or 22). The map was accompanied by a preface explaining the methodology, and a legend, as well as additional statistics, and a separate map for the Korean capital of Seoul.〔
