vinced King Chongjo in 1400 to adopt the Chinese-style artificial village (isabOp) because
it would eliminate the local practice of lewd sacrifices by creating a village shrine for a
hundred-family unit dedicated to the altars of earth and grain (sajiktan), a system used
extensively in Ming China. Because the policy did not succeed in restructuring the vil-
lages or eliminating the animistic rituals, however, the idea was dropped.

    recorded that Chungjong approved the extension of the community compact system to
    the capital and the whole country, but Tabana could not find any record of royal approval
    for that order in the Sillok. Nam Kon made a number of similar accusations against the
    community compact and the habits of the scholars in 1521, Tabana Tameo, Chi5sen
    kyi5yaku, p. 57. Wagner wrote that King Chungjong called a halt to the community com-
    pact program in 1520, but it was not a total halt. Wagner, Literati Purges, p. 112;
