Sled
A vehicle that travels by sliding on runners instead of rolling on wheels. It is used mainly on snow and ice to carry people or cargo.
During the Joseon dynasty, hunters in Hamgyeong strapped wooden planks called 'seolma' (雪馬)—an early form of ski—to their feet and charged down snowy slopes to spear tigers. Related artifacts are estimated to be 2,000–3,000 years old.
