Although scholarly terminology should have clear meanings as signs, Korean pagoda terminology has become jargon and is creating difficulties in communicating meanings which are far from the originally intended meanings; this terminology is sometimes notated in dead language, meaning old Chinese characters, or Japanese styled Chinese characters. Nobody has asked questions on the terminology itself which has long been commonly used for a century, since the Japanese-ruling period. One of the main reasons for this error is that the Indian Buddhist scriptures in Sanskrit has been translated into Chinese with vague understanding of form and meaning of stupa since 3rd Century A.D. On the other hand, the English-language terminology, already built by Indology scholars since the beginning of the 20th century, consists of easier language and clearer meanings. This paper examines misunderstanding and mistranslation of the original Indian stupa terms and suggests new terminology in current, easier language.

Originally, Gyeongcheonsa pagoda was located in Busosan, Jungyeon-ri, Gwangdeok-myeon, Gaepung-gun, Gyeonggi-do,but it has suffered from being taken out to Japan illegally in 1907 and being returned to Korea in 1918. After returned to Korea, Gyeoncheonsa Pagoda had been neglected and restored in 1960. It had been exhibited outside the Gyeingbokgung Palace after restoration, but many problems were raised. It was taken to pieces in 1995 and it is conservation and restoring today. However, the top of pagoda is necessary to be researched about its archetype because the shapes of stupa in 1902 and in 1960(the shape of pagoda after restoration) are all different from its archetype. According to picture datum in 1902, the top of pagoda was a Korean building type on a 10 layered roof stone. On the other hand, when it was restored in 1960, cement suspected as a anda was taken place between Korean building type and a 10 layered roof stone. Therefore, I am going to examine Restoration of Gyeongcheonsa pagoda in this thesis. When we examine historical records of Geongcheonsa and datum of parts, we can know that the pagoda was established in 1348(Goryeo Dynasty) but it is difficult to know the truth of its establishment and demolition of Gyeongcheonsa-temple. Three ways to restore the top of the pagoda of Gyeoncheonsa Pagoda can be c o n s i d e r e d . First, Korean building type made by metals is located on a 10 layered roof stone, which is same to picture datum in 1902. Second, the shape of and a type, which is similar to the shape when it was restored in 1960's. Also it is similar to Lamapagoda type. Third, to restore the top of pagoda of gabled roof type, which is similar to the top of pagoda of Wongaksagi P agoda. However it is necessaray to exmamine functions about circle grooves hollowed out in a 10 layered roof stone in restoration. Also we need to find out the archetype of dragon sculpture through the dragon claws left on an edge of a 10 layered roof stone.

1966년 해체 수리된 경주 불국사의 석가탑에서는 여러 가지 사리장엄구와 묵서지편들이 출토되었는데, 이들은 한국 불교사 및 불교미술사 연구에 매우 귀중한 자료이다. 본고에서는 석가탑에서 출토된 묵서지편에 등장하는 여러 가지 석탑 부재 관련 용어들을 정리하고, 이러한 새로운 용어들의 의미를 현존하는 유물과 비교하여 파악해 보았다. 석가탑 묵서지편은 크게 (1)<무구정광탑중수기(無垢淨光塔重修記)(1024)>, (2)<서석탑중수형지기(西石塔重修形止記)(1038)>, (3)<불국사탑(佛國寺塔) 중수포시명공중승소명기(重修布施名公衆僧小名記)(1038)> 등 세 종류로 구성되어 있는데, 그중에서도 석탑 부재 관련 용어들은 무구정광탑중수기와 서석탑중수형지기에서 기록되어 있다. 무구정광탑중수기에는 앙연대(仰蓮臺), 화예(花?), 통주(筒柱), 절석(節石), 통석(筒石), 분복(盆覆) 등 10개의 석탑 부재 관련 용어가 등장하는데, 이들은 대부분 석탑 상륜부 부재의 명칭으로 추정된다. 한편, 서석탑중수형지기에는 두정석(斗頂石), 상층석(上層石), 통주(筒柱), 통주석(筒柱石), 하층금당석(下層金堂石), 초층금당대석(初層金堂臺石), 월개석(月蓋石), 지대(地臺) 등의 여러 용어가 등장하는데, 이들은 현재의 석가탑 석탑의 탑신 및 기단부 부재와 크기 및 위치가 대부분 일치하여 주목된다. 이러한 여러 가지 석탑 부재 관련 용어들은 고려시대 11세기 불교계에서 실제로 사용되었던 것이지만, 현대 학계에서 사용하는 용어들과는 큰 차이가 있다. 아직까지 묵서지편의 판독과 해석은 정확하지 않기 때문에, 앞으로 중국, 일본의 중세 문헌의 관련 용어 및 다양한 실물 자료와의 비교 연구를 통해서 보다 정확하게 판독되어야 할 것이다. 또한 이러한 묵서지편에 등장하는 여러 가지 다양한 용어들의 분석을 통해서, 한국 불교사 및 불교 미술 연구가 한층 더 발전하기를 기대한다.
