Abstract

Humanity chose ‘a tomb’ as the time after life, that is, a space to face death. In other words, a tomb is a space where people spend longer than life, and among them, a tomb made of tile used as a building material can be called a Tile Coffin Tombs. Until now, tiled coffin tombs have not received much attention in academia, but recent research cases are increasing. Accordingly, after conducting a survey on the current status, the size and longitudinal ratio of the tomb, the location and direction of the major axis, type classification and year, and burial products and burial patterns were examined. Through this, it was confirmed that there are not a few differences betweenthe tiled tombs of Baekje and Silla cultures. In addition, we looked at the case of China, where Tile Coffin Tombs was first created, and the social image of the Wei, jin, Northern and Southern dynasties in which Tile Coffin Tombs appeared in Baekje. As a result, it was confirmed that Baekje, which had a close relationship with the Chinese Southern Dynasties, continued to exchange technologies in various fields of society and received Buddhism and temples, half-down draft kiln, and new roof tile production techniques. In the process, it was confirmed that the tiled coffin tomb that was introduced into Baekje was later transmitted to Silla, and that through re-localization, the tiled coffin tomb of the two cultures came to be established in different forms. The nature of burial in tile-coffin tombs, which were originally mainly used as infant graves in China, must also be understood in conjunction with these changes and need to be interpreted from a broad perspective.
