Namchi-ri Tomb can be estimated to be made in the middle of 7th century. Namchi-ri Tomb was built based on the stone chamber structure of the late Baekje period and as Silver Diadem Ornament that was given as a private gift from the central government of Baekje was buried, the buried person is thought to be a locally influential person who were incorporated into the governing system by the central government of Baekje. Namhae is a strategic point located in the center of the marine trade of the South Sea and Baekje took control of this region from the late 6th century and confronted Shilla on the boundary of the Sacheon Bay. The East Asian international sea route that had been used since before Christ from Shilla’s advance to Gaya region changed. The sea rout that passed through the South Sea and led to Goseong-Changwon-Geojedo Island-Tsushima was closed and the new route that went through the Yeosu Peninsula or the South Sea, Yokjido Island, and to Tsushima-Iki-Fukuoka was built.
