Abstract

In this paper, As part of the discovery of historical and cultural resources in the Yanggang River flowing through the Yangpyeong section of the Namhangang River, this paper focused on the specificity of the case of the 17th king of the Joseon Dynasty, Queen Hyojong, Queen Inseon's state funeral procession moving to the Yanggang Waterway and considered the entire process and regional historical significance. On February 24, 1674, when Queen Inseon's death at Gyeongdeok Palace 'Hwesangjeon' Hyeonjong decided to use the Namhangang Waterway as the route to Yeongneung Royal Tomb Yeoju‘s, the burial site, after discussions with his servants. The funeral procession had to go up the waterway of 30 Ri from Gyeongdeokgung Palace to Gwangjin by land, and then 140 Ri from Gwangjin to Yeongneung, Yeoju via Yanggang River for three days. The funeral procession, which started at Gyeongdeokgung palace on May 28, formed a fleet of about 170 ships in Gwangjin, stayed at Yangjeolchon襄節村 in Gwangju, stayed at Baekyangpo白羊浦 in Yanggeun via Daetan Rapids on May 29, arrived at Yeongneung on the evening of May 30, and then completed. After the burial, the funeral procession returned along the Namhangang River waterway on June 6. It is also noteworthy that in the process of preparing and executing the funeral, the preparation of waterways, mobilization of ships, supplies, and manpower were operated in a very detailed and systematic manner. This death ritual of the Joseon royal family shows the absolute power of governance that can be traced back to the river. It seemed that Hyeonjong selected the waterway procession in oder to reduce the national burden on the funeral after moving Hyojong's Yeongneung Royal Tomb to Yeoju by land, last year. Against this background, it was possible because the Namhangang River waterway, centered on the Yanggang River, was already served as an active water transportation route at the time. This case is not only an unusual method of funeral ceremonies in the Joseon Dynasty, but also can be said to be of great research value in terms of the regional history of Yanggang River as most of the waterway was Yanggang River. In the future, the interdisciplinary research and interest in various fields such as history, culture, geography, ancient art, architecture, and clothing are required, And also, the translation project of the related Uigwe should also be performed of this purpose. For the public understanding and preservation of history hidden in Yanggang River, it is also possible to consider to utilize it as a historical, cultural, and tourism resource.
