While the project for registering the unregistered relics that had been stored in the relic storage warehouse was in progress, restoration operations were started for the large size pottery pieces that had been excavated from the Geumgangsa Temple Site and it is attempted to explain the pottery pieces and to introduce the process of the overall conservation treatment. About 600 pieces of large size pottery had been separately stored in more than 40 relic boxes in their original damaged condition without making it possible to figure out their shape, size, usage and quantity at all. Due to the enormous number and weight of the pottery pieces, they were, first of all, pre-classified largely into 6 groups of pottery pieces in consideration of the visible features such as pottery thickness, color sense and glaze brilliance, etc. for each kind of pottery raw material. However, as a result of making them adhere together on a temporary basis, they turned out to be only one piece of pottery in reality. In this restoring process, in order to see if the generally used cyanoacrylate adhesive was in fact safe when a very large, heavy and deformed pottery piece was to be put together, its safeness was checked by examining the adhesion velocity, adhesion strength and dissolution velocity for both from low to high viscosities through preliminary experiments. In order to restore the lost parts after putting the existing pieces together, diversified epoxy resins were used to fit their shapes. Considering that the bottom of the restored relic was shaped to be not flat but round without allowing it to stand alone, an exhibition mount was manufactured so that the relic could be stored stably and used readily for exhibition.

The corelation between surface tensions and surface appearances of SK O5a opaque glazes for earthen wares were investigated. The surface tension values were theoretically calculated by using Dietzel's factors of constituent oxides of glaze. The surface appearances of glazes, especially the pinhole phenomena were strongly effected by the surface tension values showing the following general tendencies: (1) In the range of 305±3 dynes/cm of surface tensions, glazes showed almost no pjnholes. (2) In the range of surface tensions less than 300 dynes/cm, the large numbers of small pinholes or eggshell textures were observed. (3) In the range of surface tensions higher than 310 dynes/cm, large and deep pinholes were observed. (4) The contact angles of glazes on the wall tile body substrate are in the good proportional agreement with the surface tension values calculated by Dietzel's factors.

To analyze food material and table wares in daily reception dishes of Choson Dynasty, studied historic book 'Young jeob Dogam Zabmulsek Euigwae' (1609, 1643 year) described the daily reception dishes for Chinese envoy in Choson Dynasty. The results obtained from this study are as follows. 1. Food material for reception Chinese envoy were vegetable, pickled vegetable, soup (?水), brown seaweed, kelp, green seaweed, garlic, pine mushroom, mushroom, driedfish, fish egg, shrimp, pork, pheasant, fowl, salted fish shrimp and etc, various fruits preserved in honey, green peajelly, buck wheat jelly and bean curd. 2. The table wares were rice bowl(鉢里), small bowl of porcelain(甫兒), water bowl(大貼), plate(貼是), small dish(鍾子), small earthen ware jar(東海), jar(缸), pottery(甕), table(盤), chopsticks(?), washbowl(洗面盆), earthen ware steamer(甑), kettle(釜), brazier(爐), measuring cup(升), unit of measure(合), meter(稱子), spoon(匙), chest (函), lid(蓋), large rice bowl(所羅) and bowl(椀).

The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. The daily food items for reception of Chinese envoy were refined rice wine, rice, large fish, fish, Zogi, Driedjogi, mullet, pork, beef, chicken, egg, salt, soysauce, sweet soy sauce, refined soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, bean curd, stone leek, parsley, ginger and gaslic etc. 2. The daily tablewares used for reception of Chinese envoy were ricebowl (bari), small bowl of porcelain (boa), water bowl (daejeop), soup bowl (tang gi), plate (jeopsi), small dish (jong gi), small earthen ware jar (dong hae), jar (hang), pottery (ong gi), wine glass (jan), water cup, chopsticks, kettle, cauldron, bottle, table, knife, napkin, dish towel, brazier, washbowl and meter etc.
