안산읍성 목빙고의 축조와 그 의미

Abstract

This study was conducted to understand the significance and value of the wooden ice storehouse(木氷庫) at Ansanupseong Fortress(安山邑城) in Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代) confirmed through archaeological Survey. The construction of the ice storehouse at Ansanupseong Fortress is closely related to presenting fish to the king. In the case of Ansan area, the supply of fish was concentrated, and early days of the establishment of the Saongwon Branch(司饔院分院; 安山漁所), the mayor had managed it, and a ice storehouse would have been built in the same space as the government office of Ansanupseong Fortress. The ice storehouse was built at the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty and was used for a long time after 19th century, and it has been rebuilding twice since it was first created. The rebuilded gradually progress to reduce the size of the ice chamber(氷室), which seems to be associated with economic and social factors. The wooden ice storehouse with trees in the Joseon Dynasty was confirmed only at Hongseong(洪城) and Buyeo(扶餘). The ice storehouse at Ansanupseong Fortress is good condition, and the repaired aspect is clearly observed. Therefore, it has the value of important academic data in the ice storehouse of the Joseon Dynasty, and furthermore, in the study of the Korean ice storehouse. Therefore, various efforts are needed to preserve and utilize it.
