the Chosun Waterway (朝鮮水路誌) published in 1894 included a description on the Liancourt Rocks and so it must be a proof that Japan recognized it as Korean territory.” On page 255, the book gives the coordinates for the Liancourt Rocks as N37º14’ E131º55’. However, the book states on page 1 in Part 1 “Overview” that the eastern limit of Chosun territory is E130º35’, and even appends a map in the opening which terminates at E130º50’.

The image of Chosun Waterway (朝鮮水路誌; in Japanese) can be obtained at the Modern Digital Library of the Japanese Diet Library.
