유목문화를 근간으로 하는 몽골에서 말은 중요한 이동수단으로서 목축민들의 특별한 애정과 존중을 받아온 몽골을 대표하는 가축이다. 몽골에서 말은 가축을 흩어짐 없이 사육하고 새로운 초지를 찾아 유목하거나 장거리 이동시 주요한 교통수단으로 사용 되였다. 따라서 말은 몽골의 목축생활 양식과 불가분의 관계를 가지고 있다고 할 수 있다. 한국의 전통사회에서도 말은 교통수단과 군사용 등으로 사용된 중요한 가축이었다. 한국과 몽골의 문화에 등장하는 말은 신승물, 신성성, 의리를 지키고, 충성을 다하는 존재, 재앙을 예시하는 존재, 민중의 이상과 꿈을 실현시켜 줄 수 있는 존재, 정력과 지혜로움, 도약 등의 상징성을 지닌 동물로 묘사되어 있다. 또한 말은 신과 교감하는 천마이며, 신에게 바쳐지는 성물인 헌마로서 존중되었고, 그리고 신성한 존재인 마신으로까지 추앙받는 존재였음을 알 수 있다. 몽골에서 말과 관련된 세시풍속은 말이 출산하는 여름의 첫 달인 인일 '암말의 씨를 내는 의례'에서 시작해서 가을 술일에 '암말을 놓는 의례'로 끝이 난다. 암말의 씨를 내는 의례에서 암말을 놓는 의례에 이르기까지 말과 관련된 몽골의 세시풍속은 가축의 젖과 연관되어 있다. 암말의 씨를 내는 의례는 말이 새끼를 얻는 것을 기념하는 축제로서 이때는 각종 가축의 젖과 유제품이 흔해지는 풍요로운 시기이다. 몽골인들은 가축의 출산을 알리고 축원할 때 주로 가축의 젖을 바치는 풍속을 행한다. 즉, 말이 새끼를 낳는 초여름 새끼가 건강하게 자라서 수가 증가하기를 기원하고, 이와 더불어 유제품이 더 풍부해지기를 기원하면서 길상을 의미하는 흰색 젖의 특상품을 하늘, 대지 그리고 물의 신에게 뿌리는 차찰의식을 거행한다. 차찰의식을 통해 몽골인들은 초원의 풀이 잘 자라고 가축의 수가 증가하여 삶이 풍요로워 지기를 기원하였다. 가을의 '암말을 놓는 의례' 역시 말 젖짜기를 그치면서 다음 해 새끼말들이 많이 태어나서 더 많은 젖과 아이락을 얻기를 기원하는 축제임을 알 수 있다. 한국에서는 통일신라시대 이래로 국가가 주도하는 마제가 개최되었는데, 마조제는 중춘, 선목제는, 중하, 마사제는 중추 등 각각 길일을 택하여 말에게 제사하였다. 이들 제사는 말의 무병과 성장 번식을 기원하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 제주도의 대표적인 목축의례인 백중제 역시 그 해의 목축이 잘되기를 기원하는 제의의 형태로 나타난다. 또한 정월의 첫 말일인 상오일에 장을 담그면 맛이 좋다고 전해진다. 첫 말날 장을 담그면 장맛이 좋다고 하는 것은 말이 콩을 좋아하므로 콩을 원료로 하는 장을 담그는 것이고, 말날에 담근 장은 말피처럼 빛깔이 진하고 맛이 있다는 것이다. 말은 기가 왕성하므로 말날은 먼 길을 나서기에 좋은 날로 믿고 있다. 한국과 몽골의 말과 관련된 세시풍속은 말의 출산과 관련하여 다산과 풍요를 바라는 마음에서 신에게 기원하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 몽골인들이 말 젖을 하늘과 땅에 뿌리는 차찰 의식을 통해 말의 번식과 흰색의 유제품이 풍부해지길 기원하였다면, 한국의 세시풍속은 제천의식을 통해 말의 번식과 무병을 기원하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 같은 북아시아 유목적 태반을 공유하고 있는 몽골과 한국의 목축 관행의 상사 및 상이점, 스텝과 농경지대라는 목축 환경의 상이성과 그를 기반으로 전개되어 온 목축 관행의 역사적인 변용들을 구체적으로 조목조목 따져 밝혀가는 본격적인 연구과제는 시론 차원의 이 논문에서는 일단 문제로만 제기해 두려 한다.

Korean traditional fermented milk, Tarak, came down from the Koryo dynasty according to Korean ancient cookbook SoowoonJaabaang, which was written by Taakjunggong, Yoo Kim around AD 1500. Tarak is generally refers to milk or dairy products. Three theories on 'Tarak' revealed in this study are as follows: 1) it has been derived from Dolgwol language, tarak, 2) it has originated in Mongolian language, Topar(tarague), meaning horse's milk and 3) it originated in Tarak mountain located in Hanyang, which was capital of Chosun. In Mongolia, fermented milk has been called as Tarak and it has been called as tar by Yakuts tribe who are nomads in Sakha. The common part, tar, of these words is said to be the term representing the origin of the fermented milk coming from the central Asia. Therefore, Korean Tarak seems to be part of the central Asian culture that flowed into the Korean peninsula. The manufacturing method of Mogolian Topar(tarague) is similar to those of Tarak found in the SoowoonJaabaang. This research revealed that Korean traditional fermented milk, Tarak, is thought to be affected by the central Asia, especially Mongolia.

Mongolian horses are one of the oldest horse breeds, and are very important livestock in Mongolia as they are used in various fields such as transportation, food (milk, meat), and horse racing. In addition, research and preservation on pure Mongolian breeds are being promoted under the implementation of the new Genetics of Livestock Resources' act in Mongolia. However, despite the implementation of this act, genetic research on Mongolian horses using microsatellites (MS) has not progressed enough. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze the genetic polymorphism of five breeds (Gobi shankh, Tes, Gal shar, Darkhad, and Undurshil) using 14 MS markers recommended by International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG). The mean number of alleles (MNA) was 8.29, expected heterozygosity frequency (H_Exp) was 0.767, observed heterozygosity frequency (H_Obs) was 0.752, and polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.729. The Nei's genetic distance analysis showed that the genetic distance between Gobi shankh and Darkhad horses was the farthest, and the other three breeds, Tes, Gal shar, and Undurshil were found to be close to each other. Similarly, the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) showed that the Gobi shankh and Darkhad horses were genetically distinct from other breeds. On the other hand, it appears that Tes, Gal shar, and Undurshil horses, which are genetically similar, most likely interbred with each other. Therefore, it is expected that these results will help the conservation of genetic resources in Mongolia and the establishment of policies related to Mongolian horses.

Mongolia has 80% livestock of total agriculture industry, 170,000 farms are engaged, 2,500,000 of cows that were beef and dairy cows are raised. Despite of Mongolian has great application with milk, there are not clear differences between cow and dairy cattle, and the production of milk is also low. But the milk suppliers are varied (horse, sheep, goat, etc), so that the total milk production is 500 thousand ton per year. It's really considerable to improve the breed of owing to many problems with big differences among milk qualities. For carrying out for first year project, artificial insemination project was operated with 3rd grade Holstein semen that were imported from S. Korea, and initiation and field training were also carried out through appropriate AI technique we developed for Mongolia environment. Local information research and MOU conclusion were done with professor D. Altangerel in May $10^{th}{\sim}13^{th}$, 2009, and development for AI technique and AI equipments were supplied for Mongolia breeding and natural environment in July $10^{th}{\sim}17^{th}$ in 2009. All cows were treated by synchronization for AI. To do this, $PGF_{2\alpha}$ injection were treated for luteal phase cow, if it wouldn't work, try again after 11 days. After confirmation of estrus, AI and AI training were carried out with sperm injection in the uterus or cervix by rectum-vagina method which is common worldwide, the most effective artificial insemination technique. If cows were return to next estrus cycle, second AI was carried out about approximately 21 days after artificial insemination. After 2 months, all cows not showing return estrus should be taken pregnancy test. Every pregnant cow will be cared thoroughly. Total 48 cows administrated by $PGF_{2\alpha}$ for synchronization and after 48 hours 45 cows (93.8%) showing estrus were detected and then artificial inseminate them within who 8 cows (27.8%) showed return estrus. Therefore, Using $PGF_2{\alpha}$ for synchronization is effective to use for Mongolia breeding conditions. There are possibility of base for food production after all, including increase of livestock production in Mongolia by improvement of breeding cow with AI and embryo transfer project.

Objective : The aim of this study is to review the historical development and current situation of Mongolian traditional medicine. Method : Systematic literature review for books, journals, governments statistics, reports on mongolian traditional medicine was carried out. Results : The theory of Mongolian traditional medicine is influenced by the philosophy and medical theories of the ancient orient such as India, Tibet and China-theories of hot and cold, principle of yin and yang and five elements. There are very unique treatments like brain tram concussion, fermented horse milk treatment as well as moxibustion, acupuncture, and blood letting. It appears that they are very closed to nomadic life. Training program of each institutes need to be standardized. Mongolian traditional medicine had been almost destroyed by the influence of communist idea from 1930s until the end of the 1980s. Since 1990, Mongolian government put much emphasis on the development of traditional medicine. And now about 3.7% of total beds is traditional medicine one and that there are six TM schools and the total number of traditional medicine in 2012 is 1696. However, there are still the lack of manpower, facilities, standardized training program and scientific research for traditional medicine. Conclusion : Mongolian traditional medicine has been developed over centuries in response to Mongolia's unique geographical and climate conditions and the lifestyles of its people and that made contribution to the health of mongolian people. However, it needs to be strengthened because there are poor infrastructure and training program.

Rice alcoholic beverages, cheongju and beopju, which are recorded in "Koryodokyung", "Koryosageolyo", and "Koryosa", were used in national and royal ceremonies, and yakju was used in the Palgwanhoi ritual. In the late $11^{th}$century, King Munjong imported hwaju and haenginjabeopju from the royal family of the Song Dynasty. Alcoholic beverages in the early $12^{th}$century included the medical use for kings, such as gyehyangeoju, which the Emperor of the Song Dynasty sent to King Yejong, baekjainju, which was sent to King Myeongjong for his health, and yangju, which is goat milk fermented alcohol from the nomads in the northern regions. In the early$13^{th}$ century there was also dongrak, which is a horse-milk fermented alcohol, grape wine sent from Yuan to King Chungryeol in the late $13^{th}$ century, and sangjonju, a type of special cheongju sent from Yuan in the early $14^{th}$ century. Baekju from Yuan was recorded in oral traditions, which suggests that soju, which is distilled cheongju, was consumed in the late $14^{th}$ century. Gold and silver wares for alcoholic beverages had important political, social, and economic meanings as national gifts to other countries and internally as the king's royal gift to his subjects. In the late $14^{th}$ century, soju was prohibited, and the use of gold and silver wares for alcoholic beverages was banned at the same time. This study examined the historical characteristics of the use of traditional rice alcoholic beverages, the emotional preference for foreign alcoholic beverages, and the gold and silver wares used for alcoholic beverages Koryo Dynasty.
