Three haplotypes were identified among 470 colonies samples at 47 Japanese sites. All isolates from the main Japanese Islands of Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu belonged to a single haplotype, a previously reported Japan 1 haplotype. Two new haplotypes were found on the far southern Japanese islands of Amami-Oshima and Tsushima (the Japan 3 and Japan 4 haplotypes, respectively). -
'Tonghae(East Sea)' in the Korean Historical Documents
The Geographical Name of 'Tonghae(East Sea)' in the Korean Historical Documents. Sang-Tae Yee (Senior Researcher, National History Compilation Committee) <summary> In the history of mankind, rivers. mountains and sea have been given names by those who lived nearby, reflecting that culture's particular system of values and beliefs. In this way, geographical names are part of a nation's cultural heritage. Living on a peninsula sUITOlmded on three sides by water, Korea's ancestors naturally had a deep interest in the sea. Their concept of space was probably based largely on the principles of ohaeng sasang, the "five pillars" of north, south, eats, west, and the center. The designations "East" sea and "West' sea must have been natural consequences of this philosophical perspective. The first historical reference to Tonghae, or East Sea, dates back to Samguk sagi, ("History of the Three kingdom"), in a passage on King Tongmyong, founder of the Koguryo Dynasty: "Prime Minister Aranbul of the North Puyo Kingdom told his king that ' one day the son of Heaven came to earth and told the people here that they should vacate this area because it was where his descendants would establish their kingdom in the future, and that they should move to a place called Kasopwon on the coast of the East Sea. The Son of Heaven also said that they find the place fertile and well suited a capital there.' Accepting Aranbul's recommendation, the king moved his capital and renamed his kingdom East Puyo." The descendants mentioned by the Son of Heaven are believed to refer to king Tongmyong of Koguryo. -

The objects examined include one such handscroll painting, several illustrated books from the Sakamaki-Hawley Collection, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Library, and Hokusai Ryūkyū Hakkei, an 1832 series of eight landscape prints depicting sites in Okinawa. Drawing upon previous scholarship on the role of popular publishing in forming conceptions of “Japan” or of “national identity” at this time, a media discourse approach is employed to argue that such publications can serve as reliable indicators of understandings -

The History of Dokdo Since Isabu Conquered Usanguk in 512 A.D
Dokdo Dokdo is a small island, but is rich in marine products and mineral resources. Dokdo, our only marine base on the East Sea extends our territory farther towards the East. The Natural Environment of Dokdo Dokdo has a mild climate for people to live in with warm temperatures and precipitation of 1,300mm per year. The size of this small island is 0.233km2 and the color of the island is dark reflecting the color of the trachyte and tuff. In November 1965, a fountain was found at the northeast side of Seodo and people began to inhabit Dokdo. ■ The History of Dokdo Since Isabu conquered Usanguk in 512 A.D. (the 13th year of King Jijeung, Silla Kingdom), Dokdo has been a part of Korea's territory. During the Goryeo dynasty, Dokdo was left uninhabited, however, Korean fishermen continued fishing around Dokdo Island through the Joseon dynasty. In 1953, the Dokdo Volunteer Garrison deterred the Japanese from landing on the island, and our efforts to defend Dokdo continues. 1. Three Kingdom Period There are not many records on Dokdo during the Three Kingdom Period. However, Samguksagi (the History of Three Kingdoms) writes about the conquest of Dokdo by Isabu. The Conquest of Dokdo Isabu conquered Usanguk, consisting of Ulleungdo and Dokdo, in A.D. 512 (the 13th year of King Jijeung of Silla). Since then, Ulleungdo and Dokdo were incorporated into Korea. Usanguk paid tribute to Silla every year, and after the fall of Silla, its tribute continued to Goryeo. 2. Goryeo Though a specific record of Dokdo cannot be found, the records on Ulleungdo allow us to figure out what Dokdo was like at that time. -

Dokdo is a volcanic island created by a volcanic eruption that promoted the formation of Ulleungdo (located in the East sea), which is ~87.525 km away from Dokdo. Dokdo is an important island because of geopolitics; however, because of certain investigation barriers such as weather and time constraints, the awareness of its insect fauna is less compared to that of Ulleungdo. Dokdo’s insect fauna was obtained as 10 orders, 74 families, and 165 species until 2017; subsequently, from 2018 to 2019, 23 unrecorded species were discovered via an insect survey. -

The Case of Dokdo
Resolution of Territorial Disputes in East Asia: The Case of Dokdo Laurent Mayali & John Yoo* This Article seeks to contribute to solving of the Korea-Japan territorial dispute over Dokdo island (Korea)/Takeshima (Japanese). The Republic of Korea argues that Dokdo has formed a part of Korea since as early as 512 C.E.; as Korea currently exercises control over the island, its claim to discovery would appear to fulfill the legal test for possession of territory. Conversely, the Japanese government claims that Korea never exercised sufficient sovereignty over Dokdo. Japan claims that the island remained terra nullius—in other words, territory not possessed by any nation and so could be claimed—until it annexed Dokdo in 1905. Japan also claims that in the 1951 peace treaty ending World War II, the Allies did not include Dokdo in the list of islands taken from Japan, which implies that Japan retained the island in the postwar settlement. This article makes three contributions. First, it brings forward evidence from the maps held at various archives in the United States and Western Europe to determine the historical opinions of experts and governments about the possession of Dokdo. Second, it clarifies the factors that have guided international tribunals in their resolution of earlier disputes involving islands and maritime territory. Third, it shows how the claim of terra nullius has little legitimate authority when applied to East Asia, an area where empires, kingdoms, and nation-states had long exercised control over territory. * Laurent Mayali is the Lloyd M.

Bridled Tigers: The Military At Korea’s Northern Border, 1800–1863 Abstract The border, in late Chosŏn rhetoric, was an area of pernicious wickedness; living near the border made the people susceptible to corruption and violence. For Chosŏn ministers in the nineteenth century, despite two hundred years of peace, the threat remained. At the same time, the military institutions created to contain it were failing. For much of the late Chosŏn the site of greatest concern was the northern border in P’yŏngan and Hamgyŏng provinces, as this area was the site of the largest rebellion and most foreign incursions in the first half of the nineteenth century. This study takes the northern border as the most fruitful area for an inquiry into the Chosŏn dynasty’s conceptions of and efforts at border defense. Using government records, reports from local officials, literati writings, and local gazetteers, this study provides a multifaceted image of the border and Chosŏn policies to control it. This study reveals that Chosŏn Korea’s concept of border defense prioritized containment over confrontation, and that their policies were successful in managing the border until the arrival of Western imperial powers whose invasions upended Chosŏn leaders’ notions of national defense. -

ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 17, NO. 2, DECEMBER 2014: 523–536 THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA AND CURATING DISPLAYS OF KOREANNESS: GUEST EDITOR’S INTRODUCTION BY CEDARBOUGH T. SAEJI The four thematically-linked articles in this journal were developed from papers that were originally presented as part of a conference panel from the 7th Kyujanggak International Symposium on Korean Studies held at Seoul National University in August, 2014. We had discussed their publication and proposed the theme issue to Acta Koreana prior to the conference. Thanks to peer reviewers who were willing to meet short deadlines and all the efforts of the journal’s editorial staff, we have managed to get our four accepted papers ready for publication in time for this December 15, 2014 issue of Acta Koreana. Laurel Kendall, who may not need an introduction at all, has left her mark in Korean Studies, through numerous books and articles on topics related to Korean gender, shamanism, modern weddings, and material culture. She is a curator of Asian Ethnographic Collections at the American Museum of Natural History, and a Senior Research Fellow at the Weatherhead East Asian Institute at Columbia. Recently she has begun research on the people and processes involved in making things with early forays into the carving of changsŭng and a co-authored book that addresses shamanic paintings in press. In addition, Dr. Kendall is planning additional research on Korean crafts. Elmer Veldkamp is a professor at University College Roosevelt (Utrecht University), and a research associate for the Korea collections at the National Museum of World Cultures in Leiden, The Netherlands.
