Abstract

From the part "æ¸ÓÛì¢ùÊàóä«(Historic Doctors)" in "ì¢×ùõÉé©(Uirimchualyo)", the following has been noticed and concluded. 1. Because acupuncture was originated from stony needle, the word "à´(sok)" contains the meaning of needle, and from this point on, words like à´(sok), ?à´(pyumsok), í×à´(Jamsok), ?à´(Chamsok) had been derived. 2. The word ?à´(pyumsok) used in "Hwangjenaekyong(Yellow Emperor's Canon of Medicine or Hwangdineijing)" should be interpreted as acupuncture in a verb form, not a noun form. 3. ?à´(Chamsok) or ?öÝ(Chamchim) was used for surgical treatment for tumor, by cutting open tumors and pressing the pus out. Therefore, ?à´(pyumsok), ?à´(Chamsok) are the same kind of needles, and ?öÝ(Chamchim) is the tool improved from ?à´(Chamsok) used in the Bronze Age. 4. Kwakpak put a note on ?à´(Chamsok) in "ߣúÌè(Sanhaekyong)" that reads "it is defined as ò²öÝ(Jichim) and treats tumor." This let us know the shape of à´(sok), ?à´(pyumsok), ?(Chamsok), ?öÝ(Chamchim), and the stone that can be used as a surgical tool with slim & sharp shape is obsidian. 5. Because obsidian is only found around Mt. Baekdu and limited area in South Korea & Japan in Asia, it is closely related with the life & medical environment of the tribe "Mt. Baekdu". 6. The development of ?öÝ(Chamchim) was influenced by surgical treatment used in early stage of civilization, and its origin is traced upto Gochosun dynasty. Korea's own traditional medical knowledge is derived from this surgical treatment skill. 7. Because the acupuncture is originated from Gochosun dynasty, öÝ(chim) was derived from í×(Jam) of í×à´(Jamsok), ?(Chim) & ?(Chim) both were used for a time being, and finally settled into öÝ(Chim). 8. The word öÜ(Chim) showed up at Myung dynasty, and started to be used in Korea from early Chosun dynasty. 9. In the early Chosun dynasty, öÝ(Chim) was used for medical term, and öÜ(Chim) for non-medical term. In the mid Chosun dynasty, öÜ(Chim) was used as a term for tool, and öÝ(Chim) as a term for acupunctural medical treatment. 10. Under the order of King Sunjo, Dr. Yesoo Yang published "ì¢×ùõÉé©(Uirimchualyo)", added "ì¢×ùõÉé©áÙó¢(Sequel to Uirimchualyo)", and added "æ¸ÓÛì¢ùÊàóä«(Historic Doctors)" again which eventually made totally 13 books of "ì¢×ùõÉé©(Uirimchualyo)". In addition, many parts of "ì¢×ùõÉé©áÙó¢(Sequel to Uirimchualyo)" were quoted in "ÔÔì¢ÜÄÊü(Donguibogam)", and influenced much in publishing "Donguibogam". 11. In "æ¸ÓÛì¢ùÊàóä«(Historic Doctors)" of "ì¢×ùõÉé©(Uirimchualyo)", the same way in "Donguibogam", referred to öÜ(Chim) as a term for a needle, and öÝ(Chim) as a term for Acupuncture. 12. From the usage of öÜ(Chim) & öÝ(Chim), shown in "úÁå·ó¢à÷Û°(Hyangyakjipsungbang)", "ì¢×ùõÉé©(Uirimchualyo)" and "ÔÔì¢ÜÄÊü(Donguibogam)", we can notice the spirit of doctors who tried to take over the legitimacy of Korean tradition, and their elaboration & historical view that expresses confidence on our own medical technology, through the wording öÝ(Chim).
