Professeur associé et directeur du Centre de Séoul

Sujet:
An Archaeological Perspective on the Urban Development of the City of Kaesong:From the Koryŏ Period to Twentieth-Century DPR Korea
Date:
Mardi 29 avril à 12h30
Lieu:
Salle 201, Département d'anthropologie, Campus Shui-yuan, Université Nationale de Taiwan
Résumé:
Historical written sources related to the construction of the successive walls of the city of Kaesong 開城, capital of the Koryŏ Kingdom (高麗 918–1392), are biased and partial. They rarely provide details about the exact configuration of the defence systems, the evolution of construction techniques, modifications, or repairs, and they do not explain the transformation of the city. The research we conducted on the structures and successive boundaries of the walls of Kaesong not only provide a significant contribution to the historical and material knowledge of the city, but also constitute the scientific basis for the development of an operational heritage management strategy.After prospective work in 2010, an archaeological project proposal was submitted to the Advisory Commission for Archaeological Research Abroad of the French Ministry for Foreign Affairs. In February 2011, the Archaeological Mission at Kaesong was established, involving the French School of Asian Studies and the National Authority for Protection of Cultural Heritage, DPR Korea. In 2014, an exhibition presenting the first results was held in Pyongyang. Since 2018, research has been extended to royal tombs distributed outside the enclosures of the city of Kaesong. This lecture will outline the progress of this unprecedented cooperation.
La conférence sera organisé par le Département d'anthropologie de l'Université nationale de Taiwan, et le Centre EFEO de Taipei.
La conférence sera donnée en anglais. Entrée libre.
