한중일 고대의 제사제도 비교연구- 팔각건물지를 중심으로 -

Abstract

The octagonal structures are found in Korea, China and Japan. We can find two octagonal structures which are the cultural remains of Goguryeo in Wandusanseong(丸都山城), and also three octagonal structures in Iseongsanseong(二聖山城), Najeong(蘿井), and Mangisanseong(望夷山城) which are the cultural remains of Silla. But there is no trace of Baekje's octagonal structure. In case of China, it is difficult to find polygonal structure in the early days, but only octagonal pillar built in Myeongdang(明堂) was found which is made in the end of the eighth century through the excavation. In China, Most Octagonal pagoda of brick are built in the 7th Century through the 12th Century. And in case of Japan, there are traces of two octagonal structures in Naniwa-palace(難波宮), but their character are still under discussion. Except of those two structures, both Horyuji(法隆寺), Yumedono(夢殿) and an octogonal cicrular hall in eizanji(榮山寺), the typical of the octagonal structures, are buddhist buildings. Through looking into the octagonal structures of Korea․China․Japan, we presumed that octagonal structures of Korea are related to the religious service system, and both the structures and the religious service system are influenced by each other. However, the ancient octagonal buildings of China and Korea have no connections. On the other hand, the octagonal structures of Japan probably had been affected by Korean octagonal structure. Considering interrelation of the octagonal structures, before religious service system of the Tang(唐) is settled and it affect to the Silla and other countries, the religious service system of Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla had been interrelated. But at that time the religious service system of the Tang hadn't affected the one of three countries. On the contrary, at first the religious service system of Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla influenced the religious service system of Japan, but after the Tang settled their religious service system, the religious service of Japan was affected and changed by the Tang.
