Abstract

This article reviewed existing five representative descriptions on Dobong-gudistrict^ history and compared it with each other, and found out a lot of inaccuracywas contained in these descriptions. Four of them have serious errors on historical免cts, moreover even in『Dobong-gu Ji』(Survey of Dobong-gu District), which isevaluated as the most correct description of the five, serious errors were found. Among various errors on historical facts in the five descriptions, the most seriousone was the history from Silla to Goryeo period on current Dobong gu district. All descriptions except for 『Dobong-gu Ji』 completely misdescribed Silla andGoryeo history of Dobong gu district, so prompt modification of the misdescriptionsis requested. Secondly, descriptions on history of Gangbuk-gu district and Nowon-gudistrict are included in the description on Dobong-gu district history, which shouldbe modified as soon as possible. This confusion must be due to the fact that thosetwo newly organized districts were separated from Dobong-gu district recently in1980’s and 1990’s, but should be corrected as quickly as possible. Thirdly, descriptionon history of late Joseon and Japanese colonial period should be supplementedin detail. In particular, traditional village names and place names located on currentDobong-gu district mostly appeared in historical records written in late Joseon andJapanese colonial period. However, any description on Dobong-gu district historydid not deal with traditional village and place names’ periodic change and succession. Therefore, when newly updated Dobong-gu district history is compiled in near future,revision of description errors on historical facts, which were pointed out aboveand etc., must be carried out.
