영산강유역 방대형 분구상(墳丘狀) 성토물의 사회적 의미

Abstract

This article examines the social meaning of squarish platform tomb in the Yeongsangang River basin, which was built from the mid-5th century to the 6th century. The author defined the absence of tomb facilities among the square platform tombs as a ‘mound-shaped embankment'. As a result of the review, there are six types. First, it's the only mound-shaped embankment that runs from the beginning to the end of the period when tombs flourished. Second, new technologies have affected accidents and even accidents, and one of the related archaeological data is the completion of the squarish platform tomb. Third, its use was also used as a tomb, and some were built as monuments. Fourth, the form is identified by a small number of circles, and the square is overwhelmingly preferred. Fifth, mound-shaped embankment is similar to a tomb in shape, size, and technology. Sixth, it coincides with the disappearance of the indicators of status by stopping the construction of the tomb and stopping the big jar-coffin at this time. From the above perspective, mound-shaped embankmen was used at all times and became a representative tomb landscape, and was popular throughout the yeongsangang River basin. Its use was mainly used as a graveyard, expressing legitimacy for power and domination, and sometimesled to the well-being of groups and social integration. However, in the case of monuments, it was found that they were made in the form of‘two-way indicators(grave+monument)’ using a certain squarish shape. The representation of the tomb on the tombstone in the form of a square can be seen as a kind of social symbolism. Externally, it was chosen as a symbolic means of justifying power and strengthening political solidarity in connection with Baekje. The study of ancient tombs is studied through materials, but studies of ancestral rites, funerals, and cemetery landscapes should also be considered. What we perceive as tombs is that we need to understand the spiritual and cultural nature contained within them. The research topic of this article, mound-shaped embankment, is also expected to take a step closer to the field of mental culture when studying from this point of view.
