I think it is valuable to make Chinese ancient character 'Inscriptions on Bones and Tortoise Carapaces' hieroglyphics popular by combining with the digital. Because Chinese characters are ideograms, it has a huge visual effect. When it is thought over meanings with imaged data by using digital technology, it can be easier to conflate Chinese academia and humanities academia, moreover other academia that uses Chinese characters such as jurisprudence or business administration. I believe not only union of humanities and natural science in the global era can be the best example of the word 'consilience', which I mentioned before, but also people enjoy usability from educations, invention of learning contents or open learning to a cultural field by coming into wide use. Futhermore, it should contribute to changing the image of Chinese characteristics from existing difficult stereotype to positive image.

An epigraph is an inscription mainly on a metal or stone monument, but some cases on bones or tortoise carapaces, ceramics, and coins. The '茶' inscriptions in 251 epigraphs in Korea are on 16 monuments, one tile, and one ceramic. By kingdom 5 belongs to shilla and 13 to Korea. The first '茶' inscription in on the Changsung-Tap of Borimsa Temple in Changhung-Kun, Chullanam-Do, which was established in 884 A.D. Religiously most of them are related to Buddism. Tea was most valued among valuables like gold, perlume, beads, etc. and so bestowed by kings. The study of epigraphs shows that our tea culture had most prospered diring the Kingdoms of Shilla and Korea.
