Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out when, where, and who first used the term 'Yangjeon(量田)' in the Joseon Dynasty, the definition of Yangjeon, the history of use, and the process of linking it with the term ‘jijeok(地籍)’. As a result of the study, first, the term "Yangjeon" was first used in the Yangjeonjo of Gyeonggukdaejeon Hojeon compiled in 1460, and second, Yangjeon can be defined as "A national system that conducts surveys and surveying of agricultural land, such as dry and rice paddy fields, and creates and manages Yangan. Third, the term ‘yangjeon’ was changed to ‘yangji(量地)’, and from ‘yangji’ to ‘jigye(地契)’, and from ‘jigye’ to ‘jijeok’. When the ‘Internal Control System’ was enacted in 1895 and the ‘Cadastral Act’ in 1950, the terms ‘yangjeon, yangji, and jigye’ were not used, and the term ‘jijeok’ was widely used. However, with the enactment of the ‘Act on Surveying, Hydrographic Survey and Cadastral’ in 2009, the ‘Cadastral Act’ was abolished, and the name of the act was revised to the ‘Act on the Establishment and Management of Spatial Information’ in 2014, The internationally used technical term “Cadastre” is gradually disappearing. Fourth, the term ‘Yangan’ was defined as ‘Jeok(籍)’ in the Yangjeonjo of the Gyeonggukdaejeon Hojeon compiled in 1460, but was revised to ‘Yangan(量案)’ in the Yangjeonjo of the Sokdaejeon Hojeon compiled in 1746. However, when the ‘Land Survey Act’ was enacted in 1910 and the ‘Cadastral Act’ in 1950, it was confirmed that the term ‘Yangan’, which had been used for more than 400 years, was revised to 'Cadastral Book(土地臺帳)’, which has continued to this day.
