  • Kameun temple was constructed in A.D. 682 after 46 year after Chumsungdae was constructed. This paper discusses the scientific implication of Taegeuk stone rods of Kameun temple site through the geometric analysis of their engraved figures. So we can estimate that the west Taegeuk of Kameun temple site has 2 circles comparing the path of the moon with that of the sun leading to the asymmetry in its emblem(Taegeuk) and the east Taegeuk of Kameun temple site has 1 circle representing the path of the sun. The Taegeuks along with around 30 equilateral triangles representing the north latitude $35.8^{\circ}$ give the explicit information of period of the orbit of the moon and the sun. These mathematical methods can explain some relics structure of antiquity with a few historical expounds.

  • 염(Salts)은 일반적으로 가장 강력한 풍화요인 물질 중 하나이다. 염의 결정화(crystallization) 및 수화(hydration)작용은 석재의 화학적 풍화 뿐만이 아니라 물리적 풍화를 가속화 시킨다. 감은사지 석탑은 오랜 세월 대기 중에 노출되어 대기환경오염으로 인한 화학적 풍화 뿐만이 아니라 지리적으로 바다에 인접해 있어 바다에서 기원한 염화나트륨(NaCl)의 영향으로 다른 석조물에 비해 심한 물리적 풍화현상을 보이고 있다. 편광 현미경 및 SEM, XRD, XRF를 이용하여 석탑의 구성석재 및 염(salts)에 대한분석을 실시하였으며, 용출실험을 통해 얻은 용액에 대해서는 IC와 ICP-AES를 이용하여 분석하였고, 염류와 석재의 반응산물로 만들어진 염에 대해서는 정방위시료와 부정방위시료를 제작하여 분석하였다. 감은사지 석탑을 이루는 암석은 결정응회암으로 주 구성 광물은 사장석 및 정장석이며 소량의 석영 및 흑운모 등이 함유되어 있고 소량의 유리질 석기로 구성되어 있다. 석재의 표면에는 주 구성 광물들의 화학적 풍화로 인해서 생성된 2차 광물로 팽창성 점토광물인 스멕타이트가 존재하며, 대기오염물질과의 결합에 의해 생성된 대표적인 황산염인 석고$(gypsum,\;CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O)$, 소금(halite, NaCl), 해양기원 염류인 소금성분과 대기오염물질이 만들어낸 테나다이트$(thenardite,\;Na_2SO_4)$가 존재한다. 이들 염류는 일차적으로 암석의 표면에 백화현상을 초래하기도 하고, 대기 중의 오염물질과 결합하여 일부는 흑화현상을 보이기도 한다. 또한 암석 내 수분이 증가할 경우 이들 염들이 암석의 공극이나 열극을 따라 내부로 이동하여 subflorescence를 발생시켜 박락 및 박탈의 원인이 되었으며, 온도와 수분의 변화에 따른 이들 염(salts)의 수화 및 결정 작용 그리고 새로운 염(salts)의 침전작용을 반복하면서 석재 내부와 외부의 암석 및 결정에 균열과 미세열극 등이 생성되어 석재 자체의 구조적 안정성에 영향을 주고 있다. 따라서 감은사지 석탑은 지리적 환경 차이로 인해 일반적인 환경의 석조물들과는 다른 형태의 풍화양상을 보이고 있어서 풍화양상 및 풍화형태에 대한 정확한 연구와 이해를 바탕으로 보존대책이 마련되어야 한다.

  • The sarira reliquary excavated as a lot of fragments were restored by conservation treatment by us. The sarira reliquary was made using fine techniques such as chasing work and engraving work, etc. The analysis of base metals showed that different materials had been used on decorative parts in consideration of the casting and forging technique. Gold granules $(97wt\%\;Au)$ of the small bell were adhered by using a soldering material $(85wt\%\;Au,\;10wt\%\;Ag)$. The lead isotope analysis of lead glass $(74wt\%\;PbO)$ revealed that it agreed with the lead mine in the middle of south area in Korea.

A study on the Surface Cracks in the West Stone Pagoda of Gameunsa Temple Site, Gyeongju, Korea: Examples from the second story stone body and the third story capstone (경주 감은사지 삼층석탑(서탑)에 발달한 표면균열에 대한 연구: 2층 탑신과 3층 옥개석의 사례)

  • The west stone pagoda of Gameunsa temple site(National Treasure No. 112) has been seriously damaged by surface weathering, and conservation treatment is needed. In the second story body stone, vertical cracks developed parallel to the main compressional axis. The vertical cracks seem to grow much more with the compression. Chemical and biological weathering along the vertical cracks could have enhanced the crack growth. In the third story capstone, the surface cracks strike toward NE and NW directions, which are intersecting each other. In the eastern and southern parts of the third story capstone, lots of vertical cracks develop along the lines from the axial center to outer rim, whereas horizontal cracks are easily observed at the outer rim of the capstone. On the other hand, a few horizontal cracks develop in the western and northern parts of the third story capstone. This fact indicates that the compression along the vertical axis is not uniform in direction. The west stone pagoda leans toward the east and the south, so it is considered that compression by deviatoric stress prevailed at these directions.

  • The flower type ornament of the gilt bronze palace-type sarira reliquary among those sarira reliquaries of the East Pagoda at the Gameunssa Temple Site, which is the Treasure No. 1359 owned by the National Museum of Korea, was separated from the sarira reliquary in November 2010, thus conducting conservation treatments to be done on two items including the gilt bronze palace-type sarira reliquary during the period of March-October 2011. Those conservation treatments were carried out by following the process of removing the coated areas having excessive gross and bubbles, re-coating with Incralac, and then strengthening both the cracked areas and the separated flower-type ornaments with woven glass fiber after rejoining. For those areas where removal of gloss and bubbles at the coating and adhesive areas was not possible, the gloss and bubbles were made less perceivable through matting treatment and coloring.
