The marine boundary and marine pass prohibition in Late Joseon period. Han, Im-SeonㆍShin, Myung-Ho In a traditional period, It has already been existed the recognition of the territorial waters which is not created in a modern period. Traditionally, the term expressing both “open seas” and “territorial seas” was “outside seas”(外洋) and “inside seas”. “outside seas”(外洋) was space prohibiting entry, which existed to the boundary ouside in nations. On the contrary, inside seas was recognized that inner a boundary to concept like the territorial sea. It meas that a border was existing to the sea as there is a border to the land. The borderline was just the horizon coming to Signal fire-millitary visual field. Therefore, the inside seas was a space including distance from Signal-fire to horizon which was recognized to the territorial seas in Late Joseaon period. We cannot say that the range of inside seas was not fixed since the distance from coast to horizon was changed as the height of Signal-Fire, however, according to the calculation, the 40-50km from the coast was inside seas. In the respect of a sea boundary, Maritime Trade Proscription is the law which prohibits not only the horizon but also over the outside seas. It did not mean to forbid people to approach a sea itself. There are two things about the marine pass prohibition in the Joseon period. One is that prohibit to go outside over horizon of the sea and the other is that prohibit to trade centraband goods within the domestic sea-boundary. Maritime Trade Proscription is the opposite concept to Marin Inerchange. In a traditional period, the weaker both Marine Defence Power and Maritime Trade Proscription were, the more the Marin Inerchange was active, on the contrary, the stronger both Marine Defence Power and Maritime Trade Proscription were, the weaker Marin Inerchange was.
