The Korean Anchor stone, Dotdol, was the part of accessories that was efficient in stopping the ships. Recently, about 80 pieces of Dotdol excavated in Taean Mado sea area. And the examination on Dotdol was executed in terms of size, weight, type of materials, patterns, usage and the period of its use. The result is as follows: Anchor stones are made of porphyry and granite that are easily found in surrounding environment, the weight is under 200kg for the easy handling. The length of anchor stones is various, ranging from 30cm to 260cm. The average ratio of its width is 8.2 : 2.3 : 1, and it is regarded as a wide plate. The oblong flat plain shape of Korean Anchor stones(닻돌, Dotdol) are manufactured in the straight on upper long sides, and those of short sides with angles are the representative feature. This is because a side without touching outer side shank was shaped in flat. It can be assumed that it is intentionally manufactured with the increase of resistance with wider touch areas when anchor let down on the sea floor. The basic method of anchor stones is vertical with rear groove of shank(닻채, Dotchea), but it is also possible to analyze that anchor stones were separated with anchor in common and attached with a rope when it is needed. The anchor stones without groove have the shape close to the square, this is the method attached arm on both sides of anchor stones without shank(닻채, Dotchea). The exact manufactured period of Mado Anchor stones cannot be revealed, but anchor stones have used in wide range of period, utilized from early Goryeo(918-1392) to late Joseon(1392-1910) and lots of anchor stones were attributed to the Goryeo Dynasty.
