진도 관마리 1호분의 성격에 대한 시론적 고찰－한반도 서남해안권 도서･해안지역 고분과의 비교－

Abstract

The islands and coastal areas of the southwestern coast of the Korean Peninsula are undergoing intensive academic research as one of the so-called ‘Mahan historical and cultural areas’, starting with the results of archaeological remains investigated in the island area of ​​Shinan-gun and the Haenam Peninsula. On the other hand, Jindo islands, which is adjacent to the two regions, has not received much attention in archaeological research on the southwest coast due to its lack of academic achievements despite being an island region with a large area. In this paper, we introduce the results of the recently surveyed Gwanma-ri Tomb No.1 in Jindo islands and estimate its characteristics through comparison with data from adjacent islands and coastal areas. Based on this, the characteristics of the tomb culture in the southwestern coastal island area in the 5th and 6th centuries were inferred. Gwanma-ri Tomb No. 1 is a circular tomb located at the end of a hill in the island region, and the main burial part is a Horizontal hole type stone chamber with the long axis running north and south. As a result of comparing this with the ancient tombs of the adjacent southwestern coastal islands and coastal areas, taking into account the location, long axis direction, size of the stone chamber, and characteristics of the stone, it was confirmed that it had a stronger similarity with the island area of ​​Shinan-gun than the Haenam Peninsula area. It was confirmed that it has a strong connection with the archaeological phenomenon of Dochang-ri and Eupdong Tombs No. 2 in Shinan-gun and the Sangtaeseo-ri Sangseo Tombs in Shinan-gun. Through this, Gwanma-ri Tomb No. 1 was estimated to date from the mid-6th century CE, which corresponds to the Sabi period of Baekje, based on the construction of Horizontal hole type stone chamber tomb in the Shinan-gun island area. Meanwhile, looking at the distribution of ancient tombs in the Jisan-myeon area where the Gwanma-ri Ancient Tombs are located, the Naesamdang Ancient Tomb adjacent to the Gwanma-ri Ancient Tombs are located on a road leading to the sea due to their highland shape. In light of the case of the Shinan-gun island region, it is assumed that Jindo island also has a circular tomb from the 5th century in an area adjacent to the sea, as well as a Horizontal hole type stone chamber tomb from the 6th century at the end of a hill. Based on the research cases of the southwestern coastal island area investigated to date, Jindo island tomb culture is also judged to be a phenomenon that appears in the 5th to 6th century tomb culture shared by the southwestern coastal island area. The Gwanma-ri Tomb No.1 in Jindo island is together with the contemporaneous burial mounds that have continued to be discovered in recent years on the Haenam Peninsula, Wando island, Goheung Peninsula, etc., has led to the estimation of a cluster of ancient tombs built on islands and coastal areas along the southwest coast. It is clear that this is one example of this.
