Volatile components of acorn crude starches and gel powder created from them were analyzed by Gas Chromatograph-Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry (GC-IMS). Crude starches were obtained from acorns harvested in South Korea (KAS), China (CAS), and North Korea (NAS). The principal component analysis (PCA) of each volatile component exhibited a significant contribution of PC 1 showing up to 60.5%. The acorn crude starch from KAS could be distinguished from crude starch from China by PC 1 (p<0.05). However, NAS and CAS could not be segregated statistically by the PC 1 component. PC 2, which exhibited 22.8% contribution, of KAS, also showed a meaningful difference (p<0.05) from those of CAS and NAS, making it possible to distinguish domestic acorn starch from imports.

This study was conducted to investigate to compare avifauna at Taegosa area in Pukhansan with Kamapong area in Inje-gun, Korea. The observed birds at Taegosa in Pukhansan and Kamapong area were 35 individuals on species and 113 individuals on 29 species respectively. In Pukhansan area, there was severely avifauna diminishing in July in which users were concentrated. Pica pica sericea and Streptopelia orientalis orientalis were observed the dominant species in Pukhansan area and Kamapong area respectively. There were two species of national monument in these surveyed area, Otus scops stictonotus in Pukhansan area and Falco tinnunculus interstinctus in Kamapong area. Cuculus saturatus horsfields, Cuculus micropterus micropterus and Eurystomus orientalis calonyx were found out in Kamapong area to the rare bird. Species diversity and avi-ecosystems in Kamapong area were seemed to good, whereas in Pukhansan area, there was relatively poor avifauna caused by isolating with surrounding ecosystem, overusing by visitors beyond capacity and heavy acid rain. Therefore avifauna protection plans sould be made and carried out for Pukhansan National Park by thorought study with experts.

Gelatinization properties of crude starches from acorns harvested in various countries (domestic (KAS), Chinese (CAS), and North Korea (NAS)) were analyzed, especially blue value, amylose contents, amylogram, particle size, and SEM (scanning electron microscope). Amylose contents of NAS, KAS, and CAS were 33.65%, 32.00%, and 30.48%, respectively, and a similar tendency was observed in blue value. According to amylogram, initial paste temperature was $72^{\circ}C$ for NAS and CAS and $71^{\circ}C$ for KAS, whereas peak viscosity was 580 BU for KAS and NAS and 570 BU for CAS. The cooling viscosity and setback of NAS and CAS were higher than those of KAS. The average particle size was 23.17 microns for KAS, 23.53 microns for CAS, and 82.14 microns for NAS; particle size ranging from 5~40 microns was highly distributed in KAS (68.9%) and CAS (73.8%), whereas 57.1% distribution was observed for 5~40 microns and 27.2% for >80 microns in NAS. Gelatinization ranges of SEM photography of CAS and NAS showed a more swollen, extremely disintegrated, and folded structure than that of KAS. From these results, gelatinization properties, especially viscosity, setback of amylogram, particle size, and SEM photography, differed according to the country.

Nutritional compositions of acorn crude starch were analyzed according to country of origin, especially the mineral and sugar contents. Regarding the three kinds of starch of domestic (South Korea, KAS), Chinese (CAS), and North Korea (NAS) origins in the Korean market, NAS had the lowest moisture content as well as the highest contents of crude protein, crude fat, and carbohydrate. Regarding mineral contents, NAS contained the highest amounts of magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, and phosphorous, whereas CAS contained the highest iron and zinc contents. There were no significant differences in acidity and pH. Analysis of the monosaccharide contents of the starches showed that glucose was the highest in KAS while sucrose was the highest in CAS. The Hunter color L value was the lowest in NAS, whereas a and b values were the lowest in CAS. Total phenolic content was the highest in NAS. NAS had the highest DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities ($IC_{50}$: 47.0 mg/mL for DPPH, 0.038 mg/mL for hydroxyl) whereas KAS had similar DPPH ($IC_{50}$: 73.7 mg/mL for CAS, 86.8 mg/mL for KAS) and hydroxyl radical activities ($IC_{50}$: 0.041 mg/mL for CAS, 0.044 mg/mL for KAS) as compared to CAS.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the significance of Buddhist stone art in the cultural zone of Mt. Bukhan. Mt. Bukhan witnessed the prevalence of Buddhist culture in and around it since the introduction of Korean Buddhism and served as the center of Buddhist culture in the nation, where new Buddhist temples continued to be built from the Three Kingdoms Period to the Joseon Period. Of the characteristics of its Buddhist culture, it is very noteworthy that the construction of military temples in and around it in the latter half of Joseon supported the function of Buddhist temples as basic places of worship. These military temples were closely related to the mountain's geopolitical location, traffic routes, and position in the national defense system-- its mountain fortress was an important defense facility. The stone art works of Mt. Bukhan can be categorized into various types, including stone stupas, stone pagodas, rock-carved Buddhas, stone Buddhas, towers and monuments (stone monuments), stone lanterns, flagpole supports, and rock-carved sarira pagodas. There are diverse types of stone art left on the mountain. As for its period characteristics, it is clear that the Buddhist art of Silla spread even to the Gyeonggi region, and that most of the works of stone art were created during the first half of Goryeo and the latter half of Joseon. Starting in Goryeo, the Buddhist temples of the mountain maintained close relations with the royal court by operating as the royal buddhist shrine for the royal family. In the latter part of Joseon, the construction of the Bukhan mountain fortress became the most important opportunity to produce stone art. As for the distribution of the stone artwork, it was usually created in the west part of the mountain from Unified Silla to the first half of Goryeo and in the southern and eastern parts of the mountain from the latter half of Goryeo to the latter half of Joseon. It is estimated that central Buddhist temples of the mountain changed due to Silla's military goal of advancing toward the west coast along the Han River in its early days and the construction of the Bukhan mountain fortress in the latter half of Joseon to protect the capital city. Finally, the stone art of Mt. Bukhan holds very high significance in art history because various types of stone art continued to be created on and around the mountain, the stone artwork of the mountain reflected representative styles for each period, and e rare and ofthe works produced on the mountain exemplified rare and unique styles.

남북한이 분단된지 반세기가 다 되었으므로 여러 영역에서 남북한간에 이질화가 일어나는 것은 어쩌면 당연하고 자연스러운 일이라고 생각할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 이질화가 영역에 따라서는 차후 한민족의 동질성회복이라는 큰 일을 수행하는 과정에서 치명적인 걸림돌이 될 수 있음에 주목해야 할 것이다. 남ㆍ북한산 식물에 대한 국명의 이질화도 이러한 관점에서 매우 주목되어 마땅하다. 그 까닭은 이름의 혼란이란 그 분야의 교육과 학문발전에 중대한 장애요인이 되기 때문이다. 남한의 경우 한국산 식물에 대한 국명의 통일작업은 아직도 부분적으로 이루어진 정도여서 해결해야 할 난제들이 많지만, 북한의 경우 이미 1970~80년대에 국가적인 주요과업의 하나로 북한산 동, 식물에 대한 국명 통일작업이 완료되어 북한산 식물은 여러 가지 새로운 이름들로 불리워지고 있는 것을 볼 수 있다. 필자는 1992년 과학재단의 방문연구를 통하여 헝가리자연사박물관을 방문하고, 그 곳에 소장된 북한산 식물명집을 입수한 바 있어서, 현재 남한에서 그 명명작업이 완료된 분류군을 대상으로 남북한에 함께 출현하는 식물에 국한시켜 식물명의 비교 검토를 실시하였다. 본 보고는 그 중 하등식물의 조류에 속하는 분류군인 녹조식물과 갈조식물에 대하여 남북한의 국명을 학명과 대비한 것이다. 이와 같은 국명의 비교 검토는 차후 남북한의 식물명 통일작업을 위한 기초자료가 될 것으로 기대한다.

This article aims to investigate the geographical distribution and the cultural, historical, and symbolic meanings of the place names in the area of Bukhansanseong (Fortress), and to basically suggest the several features which have happened throughout the process of toponymic changes. In order to realize the purpose of the article, I collected the chronological toponymic data, particularly focusing on the Bukhanji (Record of Bukhansanseong, 1745) in which the most existing place names related to Bukhansanseong are recorded. In the meantime, I proposed the character of distributions and types of the physical, human place names according to the rear-part of toponymic morpheme, i.e. the generic name. Moreover, selecting the main place names such as 'Bukhansan', etc., I analyzed some features on the toponymic meanings and changes in accordance with the fore-part of toponymic morpheme, the specific name. Consequently, I identified the facts that the name of 'Bukhansan' in the era of the Three Kingdoms, 'Samgaksan' in the Goryeo Dynasty, and again 'Bukhansan' or 'Buksan' in the Joseon Dynasty era had been primarily called. And then the place name, 'Bukhansan' has been officially named until now since constructing the Bukhansanseong Fortress in 1711. Meanwhile, the physical place names related to mountainous and fluvial topography, the place names of artificial facilities such as a mountain fortress on this geographical environment, and especially Buddhistic place names which was named and identified by Buddhist monk, Seongneung who wrote the Bukhanji, representing the Buddhistic identity and ideology, form a large majority of the place names within Bukhansanseong.
