Characteristics
editThe city of Yeosu consists of the Yeosupeninsulaas well as 365 islands[2](48 inhabited, 317 uninhabited). Being midway along the southern coast of South Korea, it is flanked byNamhae CountyinSouth Gyeongsang Provinceto the east with a natural waterway, and the Bay of Suncheon to the west and northwest, the city ofSuncheonsprawling along its banks. On 1 April 1998, the cities of Yeosu and Yeocheon, along with Yeocheon County merged to form the unified city of Yeosu.
It has a number of islands in its jurisdiction, including the uninhabitedJanggundo,[3][unreliable source?]Dolsando,[4]and the park islandJangdo.[5]
Etymology
editThe place name "Yeosu" first appears in theSamguk Sagi Jirijiwith the record: "Haeeup-hyeon ( hải ấp huyện ) was originallyBaekje's Wonzon-hyeon ( vượn thôn huyện ), butKing Gyeongdeokchanged its name. It is now Yeosu-hyeon ( lệ thủy huyện ) in Goryeo.[6]"In bothDongramdo(part ofDonggukyeojiseungram)andDongyeobigo(Jeollado's part), the name "Suyoung" ( thủy doanh ) is noted on the southern peninsula south of Suncheon and Gwangyang. This is believed to be because Jeollado's Jwasuyoung (Joseon Dynasty's Naval Headquarters for eastern sector of Jeolla Province) was established in this region starting in 1479 (the 10th year of King Seongjong's reign). Subsequently, most old maps depict it as "Yeosu" ( Lữ thủy ), written differently from the current Hanja. Specifically, in theHaedongdo(Suncheon) map, Jwasuyoung appears south of Yeosumyeon ( Lữ mặt nước ).[7]

Neolithic period
editThe Neolithic sites in Yeosu were excavated and investigated by the National Gwangju Museum from 1989 to 1990. The artifacts unearthed include various types of pottery such as Yunggimong pottery, Apinmung pottery, Chimsunmung pottery, Jeomnyeolmung pottery, Juchil pottery, and Mummun pottery, as well as stone tools including milgae (hammerstones), jjikkgae (flint tools), jargegae (sickles), geukkeogae (scraping tools), saegigae (engraving tools), doggi (axes), galdol (grinding stones), and suttol (whetstones). Additionally, two residential sites were investigated.[8]
The residential sites were constructed by compacting clay over shell layers, with diameters ranging from 460 to 540 centimeters, and featured a circular, flat layout equipped with round kilns. Notably, at the first residential site, a set of tools including a moru-dol (grindstone), galpan (grinding plate), and another galdol (grinding stone) were found near the kiln area. These tools allowed for the crushing or grinding of materials to produce powder, which drew significant attention. The radiocarbon dating of the Songdo shell mound indicated an age of 4285±195 BP and 4270±200 B.C.[8]
In 1992 and 1993, surface surveys were conducted in the islands of Yeosu, leading to the additional investigation of 22 Neolithic shell mounds and 3 artifact dispersal sites. This revealed that the island regions of Yeosu, along with the coastal areas of South Gyeongsang Province, were cultural centers of the Neolithic period. The site locations were predominantly situated in bays suitable for various shellfish habitats, being safe from sea winds and featuring well-developed shell pits. The collected artifacts were similar to those unearthed from the Songdo shell mound, and a considerable number of Yunggimong pottery, which is dated to a relatively early period, were excavated.[8]
Proto Three Kingdoms Period
editIn the Yeosu region during the Proto Three Kingdoms Period period, there appears to have been Wonji-guk ( viên trì quốc ), one of the Mahan confederations. However, in the late 4th century, as Baekje expanded its power, several small states located in the present-day Jeollanam-do region came under Baekje's influence. Baekje did not immediately reorganize these small states into counties ( quận huyện ) or dispatch local governors. Instead, Baekje recognized the authority of the chieftains of these small states and exercised indirect control through them by collecting tributes. It is believed that the Yeosu region was incorporated into Baekje under such circumstances.[9]
Three Kingdoms Period
editIn the mid-5th century, Baekje's national power was significantly weakened due to Goguryeo's southward expansion. Additionally, as the Gaya Kingdom advanced into the lower regions of the Namyun and Seomjin rivers, the eastern part of Jeollanam-do was temporarily incorporated intoDaegaya(Great Gaya). In 538, Baekje moved its capital to Sabi-seong and divided the entire country into five regions ( ngũ phương ) centered around the central, eastern, western, southern, and northern areas. In each region, Baekje established Bangseong ( phương thành ) and governed through these large and small fortresses, managing them as counties ( quận ) or prefectures ( huyện ). In the southern region, now corresponding to Suncheon, Yeosu, and Gwangyang areas, Sapyeong-gun ( sáp bình quận ) was established.
Within Sapyeong-gun, there were three counties: Wonzon ( vượn thôn ), Maro ( mã lão ), and Dolsan ( đột sơn ). Wonzon-hyeon ( vượn thôn huyện ) covered the Yeosu Peninsula, while Dolsan-hyeon ( đột sơn huyện ) included Dolsan-do and nearby islands. From this time, the Yeosu region saw the first establishment of counties named Wonzon and Dolsan.
Representative Baekje-era relics remaining in Yeosu include mountain fortresses such as Woram Mountain Fortress located in Dolsan Pyeongsari, Temi Mountain Fortress in Seonwon-dong, Jasan Mountain Fortress in Olim-dong, Gorak Mountain Fortress in Munsu-dong, and Jukpo-ri Bon Mountain Fortress in Dolsan. However, in 660, Baekje was defeated by Silla, and the Yeosu region was incorporated into Silla's territory.[9]
Unified Silla Period
editAfter the unification of the Three Kingdoms, Silla reorganized its local administrative structures to govern the expanded territories. The reorganization began around 677 (the 17th year of King Munmu's reign), after expelling the Tang forces, and continued through 687 (the 7th year of King Sinmun's reign), culminating in the establishment of the Nine Provinces and Five Subordinate Capitals ( Cửu Châu năm tiểu kinh ) system. This system allowed Silla to directly control both the former territories of Baekje and Goguryeo and its own territories from the central government by dispatching administrators to the regions. In December 757 (the 16th year of King Gyeongdeok's reign), the names of the nine provinces and their counties were changed to Hanja names.
Silla's land was divided into provinces (주/ju/ châu ), counties (군/gun/ quận ), and prefectures (현/hyun/ huyện ), establishing a pyramid-shaped administrative structure with nine provinces. Each province contained counties under them, which were further divided into prefectures. To manage the ruling elites of the conquered regions during the unification process, the provinces were divided into three sub-provinces each, forming a nine-province administration system. Among these, one of the provinces, Muju ( võ châu, also known as Mujinju), governed the present-day Jeollanam-do region. Seungpyeong-gun ( thăng bình quận ) within Muju consisted of three hyeon ( quận huyện ), maintaining the same names as in Baekje: Haeeup-hyeon ( hải ấp huyện, Yeosu), Yeosan-hyeon ( Lư Sơn huyện, Dolsan), and Heeyang-hyeon ( hi dương huyện, Gwangyang). Consequently, during the Unified Silla period, the Yeosu region, excluding Samsan-myeon, consisted of Haeeup-hyeon (Yeosu) and Yeosan-hyeon (Dolsan).
Meanwhile, in the Gohung-gun area, Bunchagun ( phân lãnh quận ) was renamed to Bunryeong-gun ( phân lãnh quận ), Jojo-rye-hyeon (조조례 huyện ) was renamed to Chungnyeol-hyeon ( trung liệt huyện ), Duhi-hyeon (두힐 huyện ) was renamed to Gangwon-hyeon ( khương nguyên huyện ), and Bisa-hyeon ( so sử huyện ) was renamed to Baekju-hyeon. As a result, Samsan-myeon became Gangwon-hyeon ( khương nguyên huyện ).
In 892 (the 6th year of Queen Jinseong's reign), during the chaotic end of the Unified Silla period,Gyeon Hwonestablished his kingdom with Mujinju as his base, thereby bringing it under the influence ofLater Baekje.Around this time, local Yeosu hojoks (호족/korean quasi nobility-gentry), such as Kim Chong ( kim tổng ), joined the Later Baekje forces. Conversely, the Dolsan area was under the control of Wang Bongkyu ( vương phùng quy ) of Gangju ( khang châu ).[10][9]
Goryeo dynasty
editIn 940 (the 23rd year ofKing Taejo's reign), the national administrative divisions were again reorganized into (주,ju),(부,bu),(군,gun), and (현,hyeon)-the addition of부/bu.As a result, the Yeosu region, which was previously known as Haeeup-hyeon ( hải ấp huyện, Yeosu) and Yeosan-hyeon ( Lư Sơn huyện, Dolsan) during the Unified Silla period, was renamed to Yeosu-hyeon ( lệ thủy huyện ) and Dolsan-hyeon ( đột sơn huyện ) respectively. Although the name Yeosu ( lệ thủy ) appeared for the first time at this point, both areas were still under the jurisdiction of Seungpyeong-gun ( thăng bình quận, Suncheon).
Even in the early Goryeo period, remnants of militarized local powers remained in the regions. By the time ofKing Seongjong,the entire country had transitioned into a centralized governance system. Prior to this centralization, except for the western capital Seogyeong(modern dayPyongyang), Daedohobus(대도호부/Đại đô hộ phủ ), 'jin' s (진), 'ju' s (주), 'bu' s (부), 'gun' s (군), and 'hyun' s (현) did not have residential governors dispatched from the central government. Instead, semi-autonomous organizations known as hyangho were entrusted with local administration, while central officers such as Geumyoo (금유/ nay có ) and Jo-jang (조장/ thuê tàng ), responsible for tax collection, and Jeonunsa (전운사/ chuyển vận sứ ), responsible for delivering the collected taxes to the central government, were periodically dispatched to tour the regions.
Starting in 983 (the 2nd year ofKing Seongjong's reign), residential governors (목사/moksa/ mục sử) were officially dispatched following the establishment of twelve 'mok's ( mục ) in the regions. These moksas were assigned to twelve provinces: Gwangju ( Quảng Châu ), Yangju, Chungju, Cheongju, Gongju, Jinju, Sangju, Jeonju, Naju, Hwangju, and Haeju. Their role was to oversee their respective provinces and the local administrative units (hyangjip/ hương chức ) within the counties and districts. The exact boundaries and the number of hyangjip under each mok were not documented.
In theSouth Jeolla Provinceregion, the province of Muju ( võ châu, also known as Mujinju)—one of the nine provinces of Unified Silla—was dissolved and replaced by Naju and Seungju ( thăng châu, Suncheon) as part of the twelve mok. At this time, Yeosu was under the jurisdiction of Seungju.
In 995 (the 14th year of King Seongjong's reign), the administrative divisions were reorganized once again. The nation was divided into four Daedohobus(대도호부/Đại đô hộ phủ ) and ten provinces (도/do). Additionally, the twelve mok were transformed into twelve joldo-sa (절도사)s. The ten provinces were Gwannae (관내;Quan nội), Jungwon (중원;Trung Nguyên), Hanan (하남;Hà Nam), Gangnam (강남;Giang Nam), Haeyang (해양;Hải Dương), Yeongnam (영남;Lĩnh Nam), Yeongdong (영동;Lĩnh đông), Sannam (산남;Sơn nam), Sakbang (삭방;Sóc phương), and Paeseo (패서;Phối tây). The Jeollanam-do region fell under Haeyang-do ( Hải Dương nói ), and Yeosu was governed by Seungju Joldo-sa ( thăng châu tiết độ sứ ), overseeing Yeosu-hyeon ( lệ thủy huyện ) and Dolsan-hyeon ( đột sơn huyện ).
In 1018 (the 9th year ofKing Hyeonjong's reign), another reorganization took place, dividing the country into four Daedohobus(대도호부/Đại đô hộ phủ ), eight moks (8목; Gwangju, Chungju, Cheongju, Jinju, Sangju, Jeonju, Naju, Hwangju), fifty-six 'ji-gun-sa' s(56주지군사), twenty-eight 'jin-jang' s (28진장), and twenty 'hyun-young' s (20현령). This reorganization resulted in Naju becoming one of the eight moks. At this time, Yeosu-hyeon and Dolsan-hyeon were incorporated into Seungpyeong-gun ( thăng bình quận ) under Naju and continued to exist until the late Goryeo period. Dolsan-hyeon was temporarily abolished but was reestablished. In 1350 (the 2nd year ofKing Chungjeong's reign) it was promoted to Juyeop (주읍),separated from Suncheonbu (순천부) and became an independent administrative entity, continuing for 47 years until the early Joseon period in 1396 (the 5th year ofKing Taejo'sreign). Additionally, during the Goryeo period, the Yeosu region included other areas such as Sam-ilpo-hyang, Jinrye-bugok, and Sora-po-bugok alongside Yeosu-hyeon and Dolsan-hyeon.[11][12]
Joseon dynasty
editBeginning in 1479, the Joseon Dynasty's Naval Headquarters for eastern sector of Jeolla Province was located there. As such, it was the first base where AdmiralYi Sun-sin's fleet was based during theImjin Warwhich used theTurtle Shipor 'Kobukseon' which was built in Seon-so.[13]
