PLATE XIV. 



Fig. i. — From Nam-uöu to tlio Yij-nön-olilii pass (^ [vc ilt^-) (435 m), tlie 

 road follows a stream of clear water with a bed of arcose gravel 

 np to the pass where the rock is still sheared biotite-giauite. The 

 slope is thinly covered witli pine forest on a granitic ground, and 

 the scenery is said to be very fine, as there are only a few places 

 in Korea wliere forest is found. The Pi-hong-chlii ridge (cfr. PI. 

 XIII. flg. 2) is seen running witli regular meridional trend on the 

 wester n horizon (p. SO). 



Fig. 2. — Toward the end from the same- spot fig. 1, we see the axial ridge 

 of the snow-covered Chiri-san range raising its submerged but 

 regular crest (1239 77?) with wall-like sharpness beyond the high 

 •in-filled flat of Un-bong (3? ili^ )• Page 80. 



Fig. 3. —At about 4lun nortlieast of tlie eumma of Un-bong is Pi-djchi 

 (■^ WL W):- literally tlie ' village of the temple of the stone 

 monuments ' (cfr. PI. XY. fig. 1). Tliis Avas an unfortunate battle 

 ground for a Japanese band of freebooters who, in 1319 A. D., 

 were defeated in two campaigns in which they loit their chief, 

 Agibasuto (pnj P^ ^ lif)). who had come over with 500 junks 

 from Kyû-shû. The Koreans were then under the command 

 of I-8öng-ky(")i who later rose in power and became the first 

 sovereign of the present dynasty. The three shrines overshadowed 

 b}' a group of Celtis sinensis commemorate the victories of that 

 occasion.
