Abstract

In this paper, the factors of change were reviewed to understand the beginning of change in a roof-end tile with lotus design, and the standardized form of a roof-end tile with lotus design as a result was examined by comparing it with that of the Southern Dynasty of China. First, in order to identify the factors of change, it is compared and reviewed that what are the similarities and differences of the roof-end tile with lotus design that was popular during the Hanseong and the Woongjin period. As a factor of change, it is estimated that the technology for making roof tiles in the Southern Dynasty of China had the greatest influence. This factor of change is observed not only in the pattern but also in the production technique. In other words, it is possibly assumed that the change and the standardization of a roof-end tile with lotus design has been accomplished through the selection and acceptance of new elements. In addition, regarding the development process of a roof-end tile with lotus design that follows, the standardized production method is examined in terms of unification, and a roof-end tile with lotus design which has been differentiated into various forms is studied from the perspective of diversification. It is presumed that various manufacturing techniques coexisted through the process of the introduction of new technologies during the Hanseong period. Since then, many buildings have been built during the Woongjin and the Sabi period and roof tiles have been also produced in large quantities. Because it is inefficient to maintain diversity in the mass production system, a systematic production system would have been necessary, and it is estimated that it has been oriented toward optimization or unification. On the other hand, it is observed that the patterns of a roof-end tile with lotus design was developed in various forms. The roof-end tile with lotus design, which first appeared in the Hanseong period, became popular and established as the new type of a roof-end tile with lotus design influenced by the Southern Dynasty of China during the Ungjin period. Afterwards, during the Sabi period, it is observed that a roof-end tile with lotus design is diversified into various forms in order to express the individuality of public figures or buildings. In other words, the transformation in a roof-end tile with lotus during the Woongjin period can be understood as the unification of a roof-end tile with lotus design, and transformation in a roof-end tile with lotus during the Sabi period can be understood as the diversification of a roof-end tile with lotus design.
