AB - This study investigates life and achievement of Siebold who has not been widely recognized in Korean cartographic society even though he introduced Korea to the west only after Hamel. In particular, this study considers Siebold’s life as a doctor, cartographer, and regional specialist and corresponding his social and cultural background by examining documents from birth through school periods. The result shows that Siebold was born and raised under the influence of doctor family. However, his uncle inspired him to study various fields, and he became a doctor, botanist, cartographer,
and regional specialist after all. In particular, he regenerated ‘Map of Japan and Neighboring Countries’ where Ulleungdo and Dokdo were marked as Korean territory. In addition, ‘Chosun-jundo’, made by Siebold also, suggests strong possibility of Korean maps’ influence to Tamiya’s ‘Chosun-paldojido’. Reflected by ‘Chosun-jundo’, Korean maps were diffused to Japan in 16th century and imitated by Hayashi in 1785, and the imitated map were most likely distributed as Tamiya’s ‘Chosun-paldojido’. Seibold’s ‘Map of Japan’ brought confusion to European cartographic societies differentiating Ulleungdo and Dokdo.
