Abstract

This study analyzed the Planting Prototype of Haengdan(杏壇)is the One of the traditional planting techniques and the value of natural monument plant and derived the value of the ginkgo tree in Sejong-ri as a natural monument. The results are as follows; First, ginkgo trees have high environmental adaptability, practicality and visual value. There were also many ginkgo trees that were deeply related to Confucian and Buddhist ideas. Ginkgo trees accounted for the largest portion of the number of old tree designated as natural monuments in recognition of their value. Second, after analyzing the historical and cultural values of ginkgo trees, ginkgo trees became the place of gardens and buildings by symbolizing Confucius(孔子)' Confucian ideas. In Buddhism, it was related to the creation of temples or the achievements of ancient monks. The people had a symbol of the prosperity of their offspring and the succession of the family. Third, in 1024 gongdobo, the grandson of Confucius, rebuilt the shrine, installed the platform in the central position and planted ginkgo trees. It originated from what he called "the "haengdan(杏壇)." The tree was then recorded as "heungheang(紅杏)" which was written by Wang Jae-jin's poetry during the Ming Dynasty. Thus it was misused as apricot tree. The cause of this is due to the same kanji reading. or it can be seen as influence on the taoism. But Korea has been sticking to the use of the first ginkgo trees. Forth, biologically, the Sejong-ri ginkgo tree is characterized by the composition of a pair of male trees. The landscape is contrasted with the twisted male tree and vertical female trees. In addition, in terms of authenticity and integrity, the relationship between Admiral Im, Nan-Su(林蘭秀) of the Goryeo Dynasty and the ginkgo tree is found in various literature.

본 연구는 전통재식의 하나인 행단의 원형과 천연기념물 식물의 가치를 살펴보고 이를 통해 세종특별자치시 연기면 세종리 은행나무의 천연기념물로서의 가치를 도출한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 은행나무는 높은 환경 적응력과 실용성, 관상용 가치를 지님과 동시에 유교 및 불교사상과 관련이 깊은 다수의 수목들이 그 가치를 인정받아 천연기념물로 지정된 노거수 가운데 가장 많은 비중을 차지하고 있었다. 둘째, 은행나무의 역사 문화적 가치를 살펴본 결과, 은행나무는 공자의 유교사상을 상징함으로써 행단, 행정의 장소성을 지니게 되었으며, 불교에서는 사찰의 창건이나 고승의 업적, 민간에서는 자손의 번영과 가풍의 계승을 염원하는 상징성을 지니고 있었다. 셋째, 행단은 1024년 공자의 손자인 공도보가 사당 개축 가운데 단을 설치하고 은행나무를 식재하고 "행단"이라 명명한데서 비롯되었다. 그 후 명대 왕재진의 행단시(杏壇詩)에 행단의 수목을 홍행(紅杏)으로 기록하여 살구나무로 변용하였으나 이는 은행나무와 한자의 독음이 같은 이유에서 온 오류와 도교사상의 영향으로도 볼 수 있으나 한국은 최초의 은행나무를 사용한 행단을 고수해왔다. 넷째, 생물학적으로 세종리 은행나무는 암수 한 쌍의 구성이 특징적이며, 경관적으로도 용트림 형상의 수나무와 수직형태의 암나무가 대비를 이루고 있다. 또한 진정성과 완전성 측면에서 고려시대 충신 임난수 장군과 은행나무의 관련성이 여러 문헌에서 확인되고 있다.
