한반도 발견 오대·송 월요청자에 대한 일고찰

Abstract

Yubidiwan, the Miseci porcelain of the Yue Kiln of Tang Dynasty, has always been at the center of academic attention due to its direct relevance to the origin of Goryeo celadon. On the other hand, the introduction of Yuhuandiwan and other Yue Kiln celadon of the period from Wu Dynasty to North Song Dynasty have not received much attention. This book first reviews the current status and the distribution channels of the Yue Kiln celadon found in different sites in China. On the Korean peninsula, the upscale Yue Kiln celadon of the Wu and Song Dynasties were found in Gyeongju, the capital of Shilla Dynasty and the Later Baekje area. They were also found in the sites, the royal tombs, and living sites around the Gaegyeong area, the capital of Goyreo Dynasty. The consumption pattern of the Yue Kiln celadon among the top class people explains well about this discovery. The quality level of the Yuhuandiwan, bowls, jars, glasses, kettles, and Taho(唾壺) is as advanced as the Yue Kiln celadon offered to the ruling class during the Wu, Song, and Liao Dynasties. Depending on their features and categories, the top level types including jars are found in the Gaeseong area. As for Yuhwandiwan, it is highly likely that it was introduced through the direct exchange of Buddhist items with Wuyue given the fact that it is found mainly in the Gyeongju area and the temples in the Yellow Sea regions. In other words, the introduction channel of the Miseci porcelain of Yue Kiln celadon of the period from Wu and Song Dynasty is the diplomatic symbol and the medium of the Buddhist culture in the form of royal gifts. It is also important to note that the finest Yue Kiln celadon has been found heavily in the Gaeseong area where they produced their own Goryeo celadon, which is the implication of how popular the Yue Kiln celadon was in Goryeo for a long time.
