AB - This paper attempts to shed light on Sites for the Carving of the Ganghwa Woodblock-Koryo Tripitaka and the crucial role the Temple played in creating the Ganghwa Woodblock-Koryo Tripitaka in the mid-13thcentury. Much evidence is present that individual carving workshops run by temples, such as Haein-sa and Hageo-sa(下鉅寺 or下鋸寺) Temples in Mt. Gaya(伽耶山), accumulated sufficient experiences in woodblock printing of the Buddhist scriptures well before the project for the second edition of Ganghwa Woodblock-Koryo Tripitaka commenced in 1236, and that their expertise was promptly enlisted by the National Printing Woodblock Agency in an early stage. and it can be said with a reasonable certainty that in 1245~1246, minimum of 3 carving workshops(中房·東房·西房) were placed under the supervision of the National Printing Woodblock Agency. Also, as of 1247, during the reign of King Gojong, the Jinju(晉州) Regional Printing Woodblock Agency operated at least 2 workshops in Jinju and Namhae(南海). The case of Haein-sa Temple in particular deserves much interest. Haein-sa Temple in the mid-13thcentury was well qualified to be the site for the carving of the Ganghwa Woodblock-Koryo Tripitaka in terms of the skills of printing personnel, the adequacy of material resources and the advantages of geography, which were all believed to be put to good use by the National Printing Woodblock Agency. Haein-sa Temple’s involvement would have been assured with the existence in its library of the 1098 edition of the Flower Garland Sutra(大方廣佛華嚴經 : 晋本) and the Khitan Tripitaka(丹本大藏經) alone, which were used as the resource materials for the Tripitaka. As a result, The project of carving the Ganghwa Woodblock-Koryo Tripitaka in the mid-13thcentury was an opportunity for Haein-sa Temple to faithfully perform its religious and social obligations to the country, while creatively developing the Buddhist culture and tradition.
