Description
This is an astronomical chart carved on stone in the thirteenth year of King Sukjong’s reign. It was a repair of a previous one which had worn out since the original work done in the fourth year of the reign of King Taejo (1395). 1,464 stars are depicted within the round celestial body. The process of manufacture and the names of participants are also enumerated under the stars. With a slight change in structure, it is almost same as the original one. It also carries an explanatory article written by Gwon Geun. Exhibited in King Sejong the Great's Monument at Hongneung in Seoul, its composition is grander and improved. The rationale of the astronomical chart and the process of manufacture are described in a number of well-known articles.
