The opening ceremony of the Russian and Korean conference “Ancient history of North-East Asian countries” at Far Eastern Federal University took place October 15, 2012.
On this sunny day, near the entrance to the FEFU College of Korean Studies guests and participants were met by drum rhythms from the band “Samulnori.” The conference takes place in the College’s main building, which was constructed 17 years ago with active support from Korean colleagues.
One of the founders of the College, FEFU Vice-President for International Affairs Dr. Vladimir Kurilov, greeted the guests. Dr. Kurilov spoke about the history of the College of Korean Studies and mentioned the development of cooperation between representatives of Russian and Korean academia.
FEFU archeologists presented reports to their foreign colleagues on: “Bohai people in expulsion: the study of Bohai culture in Mongolia,” “Monument to Red Hill II: experience analyzing field research materials,” “The issue of teaching Bohai history in Primorsky Territory,” and others.
Foreign scholars spoke about the nature of the buildings being excavated at the ancient settlement site “Koksharovka-1,” about the results of archaeological research on the “Chernyatino-2” settlement, as well as about other archaeological topics.
“Holding conferences on a regular basis illustrates a continuation of the long friendship between FEFU and Korea Academic and Cultural Foundation,” noted one of the conference organizers, history scholar and Director of the Center of “Bohai” Archaeological Research Dr. Alexander Krupyanko. “Such meetings confirm the development of our cooperation. Scientists and public figures from the Republic of Korea came to this event as participants, which once again highlights the interest of our foreign colleagues in the development of Vladivostok and especially Far Eastern Federal University.”
