South Hwanghae Province
The consumption of dog meat can be traced back to antiquity. Dog bones were excavated in a neolithic settlement in "Changnyeong" (창녕), South Gyeongsang Province. A wall painting in the Goguryeo tombs complex (고구려 고분군; 高句麗 古墳群) in South Hwanghae Province, a UNESCO World Heritage site which dates from 4th century AD, depicts a slaughtered dog in a storehouse (Ahn, 2000).
