『三國史記』地理志의 기준 시점과 연혁 오류

초록

In this article, the exact time point employed in the references of the Geography section(地理志) of 『Samguk Sagi/三國史記』 is explored, and the errors and possible discrepancies are examined as well. Primary basis of material for the documentation of 『Samguk Sagi』’s Geography section seems to have been the outcome of the local administrative reforms that had been performed during Shilla dynasty’s King Gyeongdeok-wang’s reign. Additional recording(追錄) and documentations (追記), concerning certain areal and regional changes that occurred in local Gun and Hyeon units as a result of the reforms that took place during Gyeongdeok-wang’s days, were reflected in 『Samguk Sagi』’s Geography section. Yet, on the other hand, mistakes were made as well. Several entries (for individual areas) were entirely dropped from being compiled into 『Samguk Sagi』, such as the case of Naengjeong-hyeon/冷井縣 and other areas, and in some cases only partial records of certain areas and regions managed to be included in 『Samguk Sagi』, Some of the titles of the local units were mis-recorded, as we can see from the case of Ban’nam-hyeon/潘南郡 and other areas, and in some cases inter-relationships among individual areas and regions were dictated ‘differently’ among various texts. This was because the people in charge of compiling 『Samguk Sagi』 misunderstood the meaning of the text due to the texts’ physical condition, or simply made mistakes in compiling all the pertinent records. All these mis-recordings, errors and discrepancies should be corrected and rectified. in order to render the original text material and 『Samguk Sagi』 more accessible and reliable.
