  • This study is a study on the size of the stone statues of the royal tombs in the Joseon Dynasty. In summary, the size of the stone statues of Moon, Inseok and Unmanned Stone increased in the 1600s and then decreased slightly in the 1700s, but increased in size in the 1800s. It was confirmed that the average analysis result. The statue of Seok-in of the Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty reflects the characters of the time, and through this, the typical figures of the times can be examined. The royal tomb has consistency and uniqueness, and the norms regarding the size of stone statues have changed over time. As a building of the authoritative symbol of the ruling class, it was a national construction where royal tombs were built according to rituals and laws. It is said that the size of the stone statues in the Joseon Dynasty was about 90cm smaller than the stone statues of the tombs. In this study, the significance of this study is to confirm the stone size of each stone age in the royal tomb of Joseon.

  • Taking the Yosu Peninsula where prestige goods were prevalent and more dolmen were excavated and surveyed than other regions as object of the research, this dissertation investigated the hierarchy of dolmen society. The dolmen groups were excavated and surveyed at some 20 positions in Yosu Peninsula Analyzing the number, weight of upper stone, location, the buried relics of dolmen, the hierarchy for each dolmen group can be summarized as follows. It seems that the large group with a lot of dolmen and big upper stone which is located on the plane with stream or on the lower part of hill might be the central group with abundant buried relics. However, the size of individual upper stone does not coincide with buried relics sometimes. Thus, it is required to review the entirety of dolmen group rather than individual upper stone in the relation between the scale of upper stone and buried relics. Then the scale of tomb is proportionate to the prestige goods. Meanwhile, the discrepancy between dolmens can be verified by the difference among upper stone, tomb, burial accessories, etc in the unit dolmen group. Since dolmen is the tomb of some inhabitants in the Bronze Age, the existence of stone coffin tomb with buried bronze sword, jade or stone sword compared to the stone coffin with no relics means that there was powerful representative of one generation even in one kindred group on the basis of wealth or authority. It can be concluded that the upper stone or large tomb or prestige goods among the persons buried in dolmen were fixed as high class, those with relatively small stone coffin with no or scanty burial accessories were fixed as medium class and multitudinous class who were not buried in dolmen were fixed as low class. Therefore, the dolmen society in Yosu Peninsula shows that there was division of class in the unit dolmen group as well as hierarchy in the group.

  • The Mireuk Temple Stone pagoda is the largest scale of the existing Stone Pagoda in Korea. A research until now postulates that the Stone pagoda at Mireuk Temple site is composed of nine stories total. However it does not have any records of the detail, dimension, and related methods, etc, even though it is a tectonically large scale building. Only one source of the description is based upon a story which is a sort of Korean myth or traditional story (Samkukyousa, Mu dynasty), although a historical description from a myth or a story is a polemical issue and still needed research in order to prove the truth. One of the ways to make a proof of the truth is an architectural research from the typology of the plane. The types of the plane are differentiated from each era. Therefore, the typology of the plane presents a reason or a proof for the age of the pagoda. Furthermore, the typology of the plane is crucial part in the research of the historical style and it could help the historical style of the Mireuk temple stone pagoda. Research until now shows that the Mireuk temple stone pagoda is the genesis of the stone pagoda shaped after wooden one. It is impossible to find any previous one from the stone pagoda at Mireuk Temple site in Korea. So it is easier to find any previous example from the history of China because Buddhist pagoda-most pagodas are something to do with Buddhism-in Korea is introduced by India via China. This research presents the periodical variation of stone and brick pagoda in both countries. It concludes that the Mireuk temple stone pagoda has $7^{th}$ century's plane type.

  • Archaeological investigations carried out in the Chilgok Housing Land Development Area have identified large-scale settlements from the Bronze Age and Three Kingdoms periods. The settlement site in Dongcheon-dong, Daegu was found to include sites of pit dwellings, buildings with elevated floors, stone coffin tombs, wells, catchment basins, stone mounds, furrows, cropland, moats, and river channels. These findings offer insight into diverse aspects of settlements during the Bronze Age. This study analyzed the species of trees that produced the materials for eight wooden artifacts excavated from a Bronze-Age river channel site. The analysis identified two examples of Pinus spp., two examples of Abies spp., and four examples of Quercus sp. The three artifacts of undetermined use were made using wood from Pinus spp. and Abies spp. Among the five artifacts identified as building components, one was made from Pinus spp. and four were made from Quercus sp.

  • In this study, we investigated the source area and petrological characteristics of rock properties from the Jeseokri stone-lined tombs located in Gimcheon by analyzing its rocks and source rocks. As a result, the Jeseokri stone-lined tombs consists in a total 11 kinds of various rock types. And aplite (34.5%), leucocratic granite (26.9%) and schistose granite (24.4%) have a large percentage of the rock's composition. By examining the possible provenances, the same rock types and the stones of a similar with metamorphic grades are discovered along the Jeseok mountain valley located to the south of tombs. These findings suggest that the rock properties of the Jeseokri stone-lined tomb were supplied from the upper Jeseok mountain valley and about 1.7km away from Jeseokri. This study could be used for the archaeogeological interpretation of funeral culture and conservation data of buried cultural properties in the age.

  • Background/Aims : Gallbladder(GB) stone is the most common disease in the biliary system, and the incidence is gradually increasing in Korea. This change may include rapidly proceeding urbanization and changing food factor. We performed this study to investigate related GB stones and contraction of GB as dietary factors. Methods : We investigated 129 subjects(mean age : 47 years). GB stone group is 9 subjects(M: 2, F: 7) in Namyangju-si. Control group without GB stone is 18 subjects(M: 6, F: 12) in Wi-do island. For subjects without GB stone, diabetes mellitus decide 4(M: 2, F: 2) and then each after eat flesh and meat of estimated by experimental group ejection fraction rate(%). Results : Ejection fraction rate of GB were different between meat and fishes intake. When ate the meat in experiment for hypothetical verification, when become ejection fraction rate of meal GB 210 minutes, was the highest and when ate fish, the ejection fraction rate of GB was the highest in meal 120 minutes. Conclusions : After meats intaking the bile inside the GB is stagnant long and the GB stone is formed. We studied the results GB motility may important play a role on GB stone formation.
