Abstract

On the eastern end of Mt. Fenghuang along the Silk Road in the Korean Peninsula still remains an old castle of Goguryeo. This fortress is surrounded by steep hills and is 7,525m in girth. According to various historical records, we presumed that this is Gogyryeo's Ogol Fortress. In the 17th century, however, researchers proposed that this Fortress is Ansi Fortress at which General Yang, Man Chun of Goguryeo defeated great troops of the Tang Dynasty of China in 745. At that time, this Fortress was highly spotlighted by the envoys of the Joseon Dynasty of Korea. Since the 18th century, the presumption of Ansi Fortress became a general idea in society. Of course, there are oppositions against the presumption of Ansi Fortress based on certain historical and geographical documents. How should we understand the fact that a space rooted a historical story from a certain point? Considering various historical circumstances between mid 14th century and late 18th century, it was found that this fact was supported by ① Seoringui's heroic story that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty confronted a crisis at Fenghuang Fortress, ② ≪Dangseoyeonui(唐書演義)≫ that General Yang, Man Chun, the keeper of Ansi Fortress defeated the Tang Dynasty, ③ a historical record that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty failed to attach Ansi Fortress, ④ a textual record that Goguryeo used to call Bonghwang ‘Ansi’ or ‘Asi,’ and ⑤ a historical circumstance in which Ansi Fortress was controlled by the Qing Dynasty. This study discussed how Ansi Fortress has been recognized in complex historical circumstances in aside to the specifying the location of Ansi Fortress.
