ABSTRACT
열림/닫힘 버튼

The letters on an unearthed seal are mainly examined in this study. From the viewpoint of graphonomy, I formed a hypothesis and used the method of exclusion. The formational principle of unconfirmed letters on the seal is analyzed and illegible letters are deciphered in this study based on the understanding of component parts of So-Jeon and Geum-Mun(one of the old Chinese character forms) in combination with the understanding of the rule and technique about seal engraving. This is a study on the theories of graphonomy, and it also proved a practical theme of classical studies. This research can be classified as the one using applied science.
