Abstract

This paper analyzes the cultural contact and cultural change process of late Bronze Age societies in the Midwest region. First of all, the late Bronze Age was divided into three periods and examined the change in the location of settlement, subsistence economy of each location, intensity of culture contact, motives of culture contact. The settlement was initially built in the highlands, but gradually expanded to the lowlands over time. These changes in location type were closely related to subsistence economy. The strength of cultural contact between the Round Clay-stripe pottery culture and the Yeoksamdong/Songgukri assemblage also intensified with time Because the number of Suseokri-type pottery increased in Yeoksamdong/Songgukri assemblage. The background of this cultural contact is presumed to be closely related to subsistence exchange between assemblages, as can be seen from the use of utilitarian pottery.
 Next, This study traced the emergence and change process of exotic elements in Yeoksamdong and Songgukri assemblage settlements. In the first period, it was confirmed that a set of Round Clay-stripe pottery and Black burnished long-necked jar were mainly buried in the graves of indigenous people. It can be seen that the Yeoksamdong and Songgukri assemblage accepted foreign culture to a certain extent, but it is highly likely that the cultural contact between assemblages was once-off event such as a one-time migration rather than a continuous cultural contact since the number of Suseokri-type pottery found in the settlements is small. In the second period, the Round Clay-stripe pottery culture settlement begin to expand the hilly location, and contact between assemblages also increases. a number of Suseokri-type pottery or a imitation pottery are found in some villages. Evidence of production of Suseokri-type pottery has been identified. These trends are believed to be associated with the resolution of conflict between assemblages and the initiation of a symbiotic relationship, leading to the activation of subsistence exchange. As a result, it is thought that cultural contact has diversified and various cultural acculturation have appeared. In the third period, the process of change to the Round Clay-stripe pottery culture beyond the symbiotic relationship between the assemblage is confirmed. In the Yeoksamdong and Songgukri assemblage settlements, foreign material culture such as Suseokri-type dwelling and wooden coffin tomb with stone mound appeared, and the proportion of foreign pottery is also higher than that of indigenous pottery. Thus, The societies in the late Bronze Age of midwest region gradually show a resolution oftombs of Pyoungyang Jinpari of Koguryo Kang, Hyun-sook conflicts and an increasing intensity of cultural contact over time, resulting in various forms of cultural acculturation. Ultimately, it can be summarized that cultural changes occurred in the Round Clay-stripe pottery culture.
