고분으로 본 6세기 전후 백제와 왜 관계

Abstract

In this paper, I analyze the tombs and discuss the political relationship between the Korean peninsula and the Japanese islands around the sixth century. The appearance of Japanese-style stone chamber tombs and keyhole shaped tombs on the Korean peninsula and the appearance of the early stone chamber tombs in Japan's Kinai region were common during the sixth century. Archeologists believe that the two phenomena are separate phenomena. However, I have moved away from these traditional perspectives, and have examined the whole context from a synchronic view point. Thus, I first analyzed the Japanese-style stone chamber tombs distributed on the Korean Peninsula and found that there were two types of stone chamber tombs. The first is the stone chamber tombs that reflect the elements of the northern Kyushu-style stone chamber tombs. The seceond is the stone chamber tombs combined with Japanese elements and indigenous elements according to their aspects. I subdivided these stone chamber tombs into three types. Type 1 is stone chamber tombs that reflect the northern Kyushu-style stone chamber tombs. Type 2 is stone chamber tombs that imitate "type higo" stone chamber tombs distributed along the coast of the Ariake Sea. Type 3 is stone chamber tombs that are a combination of Japanese elements and local elements. These Japanese style stone chamber tombs come in the form of a combination of Japanese elements and indigenous elements in the native burial ground. Thus, I believe that the stone chamber tombs of the northern Kyushu-style stone chamber tombs were imitated and intensively constructed on the Korean peninsula. I believe it is difficult to accept the argument that native chiefdoms of the indigenous peoples had accepted Japanese-style stone chamber tombs because the Japanese elements were firmly established. Such a pattern of typological change on the Korean Peninsula can not be found at all. In addition, this is a disconnected and independent phenomenon from the typological change in the Japanese islands. I also discovered that the chamber tombs were built by local groups constructing graves, and not by groups building graves who crossed over from Kyushu, on the basis of a hypothesis regarding the circumstances of the Japanese-style stone chamber tombs being built. At the same time, at the end of the fifth century, the Baekje Kingdom and the Yamato Kingdom were closely related through diplomatic relations between the ruling families and the propagation of advanced culture. In return, the Yamato kingdom was believed to have provided human and material resources. In the course of this process, the Yamato kingdom used local forces in the Kyushu region, and the stone chamber tombs and keyhole-shaped tombs of the Kyushu region were constructed based upon those in the Yeongsan River basin in the Korean peninsula. In the end, it is not accurate to simply identify the relationship between Baekje and the Kinai area, the Yeongsan River basin, and the Kyushu region, From the overall treatment of this period, I believe that it was a multilateral relationship that led to the Baekje Kingdom-Yamato Kingdom-Kyushu region and the Yeongsan River basin forces.
