위도띠뱃놀이에 등장하는 띠배의 역사성과 본연의 기능에 관한 고찰

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the historicity and original function of the Ttibaeappearing in Wido Ttibaennori through comparing the data of previous researches and thecases of other areas. Even though the studies related to the Ttibae of Wido Ttibaennori haveactively progressed compared to other ceremonial instruments, it is the reality that nothing hasbeen revealed clearly about the history and original function of the identity of the Ttibae . The ceremonial instruments that are similar types to the Ttibae are Busan and Balsimji , andBaebangseon of Jeju-do. These instruments have the common point in the aspect of the objectsto be floated in the sea, and the historicity of the Ttibae will be reviewed in consideration of theinstruments. Because related data are not sufficient, it is not easy to understand accurate history, butthe study could confirm that the cases of sacrificing or floating something to the sea haveexisted in the Goryeo Dynasty, the Joseon Dynasty and even until quite recently. There arealso a variety of objects, including pigs, talismans and pyebaeks, and the Ttibae is also one ofthem. But the cases of making and floating a boat in the sea like the Ttibae can be confirmed in『Goryeodogyeong』 which is a literature of the Goryeo Dynasty. It is about cutting trees to makeboats and throwing boats before going out to sea in earnest, and the record suggests that thehistory of the Ttibae started a great while ago. However, it seems that further discussions arerequired on how this form was positioned in the shape of the Ttibae . Next this study introduced similar ceremonial instruments about the original function of theTtibae and first derived common and different features of these instruments. In this process, itwas confirmed that the majority of ceremonial instruments were floated to the sea in January, when fishing began in earnest. Based on these contents, it could be confirmed that the originalfunction of Wido Ttibaennori had the character of an object of sacrifice contributed to thedragon king of the sea before sailing such as Sim Cheong of Simcheongjeon .
