This study aims to interpret the location of 4 traditional settlements in the Youngnam district of Korea in view of geomorphology. For this study, GIS techniques were used to analyse quantitatively the degree of slope, slope aspect and the relation with river/stream of these regions. Yugok is located on pediment in the valley basin. Cheonjeon is located in the end part of the hill. Hahoe is located on the convex natural levee of the flood plain. Yangdong is located on a hillside. Houses are mostly distributed with south, southeast, and southwest aspect, but in Hahoe face all sides. Also, the settlements are located on average $10{\sim}20m$ above river bed. This indicates a safe height above river bed for avoiding an flood damage. These results imply that the location of the traditional settlement is based on a scientific logic and rationale. It is thus argued that the settlements satisfy exellent geomorphic conditions from the perspective of modern theories of residential location.

Place names represent a lot of information about the region and the life of the local residents. In particular, old geographical names have more spatial informations than recent place names. This paper tried to analyze the distribution and characteristic of 'Dumo' which is one of the ancient place names and was studied by Nam youngwoo in 1996 for the first time. After considering the etymology and phonological structure of 'Dumo', the name 'Dumo' included the geographic conditions related to a mountain and river in itself. The total number of place names in the line of 'Dumo' which were collected by the author were 417 and they were distributed evenly on the Korean Peninsula. 85% of them were used for the human place names and 73% of the human place names were served as settlement names standing for a village or an administrative district. Thus the author analyzed the location and diffusion of 220 of settlement names in depth. As a result, villages named in the line of 'Dumo' preferred southern or eastern exposure and located in front of a mountain and around a river. After a village name 'Dumo' was set up, it produces other similar names in the line of 'Dumo' near the village so most place names of 'Dumo' were found with several names of 'Dumo' not alone.

Eupseong (county seat) represents the Korean historic city which had constructed intentionally by central government during Joseon Dynasty. There were variety of government or county offices which named as Gaeksa, Dongheon, Nea, Jilcheong, and so on. Also, there are houses of the people in many Eupseong but not all of them. This study aims to reconstruct the landscape elements and its overall construction of Eupseong in the Late Joseon dynasty on the original land registration map(1913). For this purpose, the author underlines to set-up target period for reconstruction. This study considers the early 19th century in Joseon as completion period of Eupseong landscape, and then researches distribution of Eupseong and major elements of its landscape in national scale. Based on those results, the author tries to reconstruct location of major landscape elements and layout of Eupseong landscape in the early 19th century on the original land registration map in case of Taean Eupseong, Seosan Eupseong, and Haemi Eupseong in Chungcheongnam-do (province), Korea.

In principal, the original form of Eupchi landscape in Naepo reflects a traditional idea regarding direction as a connection with one's fortune and naturalization strategy of power. In reality, the weight for the landscape inside the castle town was distinct by locality according to the conditions of natural geographies and main function of the castle town. In other words, the traditional Eupchi landscape was shaped under the fixed principles but it was simultaneously reflecting the local temporality and spatiality. As Chosun Dynasty went under the Japanese colonization, Eupchi in the traditional period started to evolve into a modem city. That is to say, the traditional Eupchi as a political place became to change into the center of capital accumulation, stronghold of economy and education, and center of town beyond the function as a place for government and administration. Therefore, the process of change from the landscape of Eupchi to a modem city was a kind of revolution in the form and function, and it was also a very rapid rearrangement of social space. The disparate element of landscape and double social space worked as a vital inertial element in the urban structure of Naepo area until the post independence and evolution of landscape.

The great estate system of the Old World crossed the Atlantic Ocean in the 1500s along with the Spanish Royal Army, mission, merchants, crops and domestic arrivals, landing at the end of the journey in the Middle and South Americas. The latifundio of Spain's Middle Age combined with the environment of the New World to be regenerated in the name of hacienda which bad became tightly roared in the countryside landscape of New Spain by fin-de-colonial period of 1820s. The haciendas were distributed mainly over the central part of the present-dey Mexico, and the presence of water and towns determined the specific location of the large landed estates. Depending on the activities performed, the hacienda can be divided into several types such as grain hacienda, livestock hacienda, mining hacienda, henequen hacienda, and so forth. Consisting of landlords, estate managers and waged labor called peons, the hacienda as a semi-autarkic settlement played various roles as the home of church, the agrarian center and the hearth of cultural diffusion, as well as dwelling. Toward the end of the colonial period the hacienda experienced internal transformations driven by capitalism.

Darangyi paddy in Namhae Gachon village provides natural beauty with its distinct location. Darangyi is a traditional Korean landscape, shaping a circular form to serve continuous cultivation. Despite the paddy's landscape, it is difficult to preserve its natural scenery due to many factors such as inadequate visual analysis. Under the belief that there is a necessity to preserve Darangyi paddy, the research in visual features of the paddy began to illustrate the relevance between its viewpoint and landscape objects. First, we researched typical view structures. When considering the visual features, Darangyi paddy landscape objects has a viewpoint from the horizontality to its below, which its center area is about $-5^{\circ}{\sim}-30^{\circ}$. From the analyzed data, the scenary of Darangyi paddy, which most people agree its decency, is formed in a visually decent location. The above type of measure of visual structure in Darangyi paddy is expected to be applied in maintenance of foothold of views in the future. Second, the surrounding elements play important parts to form the whole landscape of Gachon Darangyi paddy. Although Darangyi paddy is the principal part of the scenary, the landscape analysis showed a high relevance with the paddy's identity, forest around the paddy, sky, ocean, settlements, and the roads in terms of visual perception. It was affirmed that those elements around the paddy play important parts in structuring and providing the beauty of the whole landscape. Various viewy objects are seen obvious especially in a long distance, and the splendid scenary proved that those viewy objects are in indispensable location. In order to preserve the paddy, it seems necessary to consider the surrounding envrionment of Darangyi paddy, not just the paddy's sole landscape form. Third, Darangyi paddy has a distinct seasonal characteristics. According to the survey analysis, the full heading time in spring and time when people can take a picture against the sun light proved magnificence of Darangyi paddy. Thus, it would be ideal to maintain Darangyi paddy by securing the sunlight condition with decent landscape view and the views from its surrounding environments or researching the ways to principally maintain the surrounding environments.

농촌 지역의 인구 감소 및 그에 따른 지자체의 위기의식이 심화됨에 따라 국내에서도 지역마다 각종 인구 늘리기 시책을 실행하고, 중앙에서 도시민 농촌유치 프로그램 지원 시범사업을 기획하는 등 지역 발전의 기본 요건이 되는 인구 감소의 해결을 위한 노력이 가시화되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 일본의 정주촉진 정책 사례에 대한 고찰을 통해 국내 정책에의 시사점을 도출하고자 한다. 시마네현은 일본 혼슈의 동해 연안에 위치하고 있으며, $6707.26km^2$의 면적에 약 74만 2천 명의 인구(2005)가 살고 있는 지역이다. 시마네현의 총 토지면적 중 약 80%가 산림면적이며, 경지면적은 41,000ha로 약 6%를 차지하고 있다. 이 중 논이 80%를 차지하여 논농사 중심의 농업이 이루어지고 있으며, 풍요로운 수산자원을 보유하고 있어 어업활동도 활발하다. 이러한 시마네현에서는 UI턴의 촉진을 위해 '산업체험사업'을 1996년부터 시행하고 있는데, 농림어업에 관한 산업체험을 실시하고, 체험 후의 거주지로 빈집을 활용하는 사업이다. 현 외 거주자가 시마네현 내에서 일정시기 산업체험을 하고자 할 경우, 월 50,000엔이 지급되며, 거주지 확보가 어려울 경우 트레일러하우스나 빈집활용주택, 공영주택 등을 임대해주고 있다. 또 시마네 현 내에서 30세 미만의 청년 미취업자가 일정기간 산업체험을 실시할 경우, 체험에 필요한 경비의 일부를 제공해주고 있다. 그간의 실적을 보면 연간 평균 105명이 체험에 참가하고 있으며, 2000년 이후 정착률은 50%를 넘고 있다. 총 259개의 체험 장소에서 월 평균 4명이 참가하고 있으며, 업종별 참가자수는 농업 및 기타(관광, 전통공예), 어업, 임업, 축산업의 순서로 많은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 또한 시마네현의 고츠시에서는 '도시와의 공생 교류' 실현을 위한 9가지 중점시책을 설정하고 그에 따른 사업을 실행하고 있다. 농산어촌의 취락을 유지하는 것이 첫 번째 중점시책으로서 이를 위해 빈집을 활용한 정주와 교류가 활발히 이루어질 수 있도록 주거 정보를 수집, 관리, 웹을 통해 제공하고 있으며, 농지 유동화 및 농림수산물의 직거래 시스템 확립에 주력하고 있다. 이 밖에도 UI턴자 확보를 위해 지역에서 살고, 일하고, 즐기는데 대한 일체적인 정보 제공 시스템을 마련하고 있으며, '고향교육'을 통해 지역에 대한 애착심을 기르는 동시에 지역에서의 취업 지향을 높이는데 힘쓰고 있다. 농촌 정주촉진을 위한 사업 내용면에서는 일본과 우리나라 간 큰 차이가 없다. 그러나 사업에의 의지와 방향 설정, 사업 추진체계 및 운영방식 등에서 발견되는 차이를 주시함으로써 농촌 지역 인구 증가에 보다 실질적으로 기여할 수 있는 정책으로 만들어가야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the integrated heritage conservation actually affected the urban economy of historical cities. To this end, this study examined the trends and meanings of an integrated heritage conservation, and a relationship between sustainable urban development and integrated heritage conservation to find out connectivity with urban economy. Before an empirical analysis of domestic policy of integrated conservation of heritage, this study overlooked the system of the preservation and promotion of ancient cities, which can be called integrated heritage conservation system in Korea, and examined how the historic landscape improving project, which is being implemented as part of the policy of the preservation and promotion of ancient cities, actually affected the urban economy. This study empirically identified the impact of the project through a land price analysis of the region. This study focused on analyzing an impact of the project on a price of land in the proximity of subsidized land lot and analyzed the impact through Difference-In-Difference method. In particular, the project effect was analyzed only for the settlement zones among the preservation and promotion zones where the project was carried out, and as a result, it was confirmed that the average price of lands in the proximity of subsidized land increased more over the same period than in the areas where the project was not intensively implemented.

Although foxtail and broomcorn millet have been cultivated since the Neolithic Age on the Korean Peninsula, there have been few studies on how the importance of millet cultivation changed over time. The discovery of millet has been rare in the Mahan-Baekje villages in the Jeonnam region, and archaeological discussions on ancient farming have centered around rice farming. However, a large amount of millet was found at the Osan site in Bongrim-ri, Jangheung, showing that the tradition of millet cultivation continued during the AD 3-4 centuries. In contrast to rice farming, which requires low-lying wetlands, hot and humid summers, and a large labor force, millet cultivation has few restrictions in terms of growing environment and labor mobilization. Regarding harvesting seasons, the crops at the Osan site can be divided into fall harvesting (rice, legumes, millet) and summer harvesting (wheat). Regarding field locations, the crops are divided into wetland crops (rice) and dryland crops (wheat, legumes, millet). The operation of the dual agricultural system contributed to subsistence resilience and agricultural production, making it possible to effectively manage social and climatic crises.
