국내성에서 발견된 고구려 윷놀이판과 그 천문우주론적 상징성

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this paper, I analyzed an ancient cosmological diagram of Korea what we called the "yut-nori-pan", that was found at the capital city of Kuknae-sung in Koguryo. This was carved out of natural rock which was located in the east front of Koguryo mural tomb No. 3319 (JYM No. 3319) among the U-san tombs town in Kuknae-sung area. A figure of "Yut-nori-pan" is round-shaped, horizontal diameter 36 ㎝ by vertical diameter 34 ㎝. This diagram has a cross and marginal big circle shape, consisting of twenty-nine cup marks, each hole diameter 2 ㎝. The cross has 9 holes, the marginal circle has 20 holes. In brief, this type shapes rounded plus sign.
The diagrams such as this figure are Widely found in Korea area, up to now about several hundreds diagrams over 20 places are reported. But we have neither heard nor reported about such diagram in Chinese area. This fact shows the "Yut-nori" diagram is not Chinese but Korean culture's.
Seeing as a Korea petroglyph study, they are generally found on the caps of archaeological dolmens or on the surfaces of natural rocks, so I think they are the pre-historic or ancient culture phenomena.
At the aspect of meaning and symbol, I suggest the "Yut-nori-pan" is first cosmological or astronomical diagram that ancient Korean had created and developed, they would have endowed the diagram with northern seven stars circling the northern polar star. At least, many Confucianist of Chosun dynasty thought the diagram symbolizes the sun circuit through four seasons.
The "Yut-nori" is one of the famous plays in Korea folklore, now we still play it during the new year season from a new year day to the full moon day of lunar January or during special country festivals. "Yut-nori", therefore, is our old national folklore and "Yut-nori-pan" is a very intimate diagram to us.
As above, "Yut-nori-pan" carved at Kuknae-sung in Koguryo is a very important datum showing Koguryo's culture one of our general Korea cultures, and our ancient Korean people having created for the first tin1e as the astronomical diagram symbolizing celestial moving.
