Ulju-gun Government Office.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] On the 13th, Ulju-gun, Ulsan held a kickoff briefing session at the county office Ihwa Hall to establish a comprehensive maintenance plan for the nationally designated cultural heritage Site No. 332, 'Ulju Ungchon-myeon Geomdan-ri Site.'

The Geomdan-ri site in Ulju was discovered in 1990 as Korea's first complete form of a large-scale Bronze Age collective village site, with a moat (hwanho) dug around the village perimeter.

At the time of discovery, in addition to the moat, many relics were confirmed, including 92 pit dwellings, 1 posthole building site, 13 old tombs, and 4 facilities related to folk graves.

Since its discovery, due to backfilling and the lack of a maintenance plan, the value of the site has not been utilized, and urgent comprehensive maintenance plan measures have been continuously raised.

Ulju-gun plans to maximize the value of the site by establishing the current status, comprehensive maintenance measures, and management operation plans through this project.
