    46 中國史硏究第51 輯 (2007.12) Western Views of Northeast about rituals, leadership, ideologies and other hot topics of recent Western archaeology . China in the Neolithic and Ancient texts relating to the Dongbei are few, with Bronze Ages descriptions that are less than complete, and distances that are unreliable. Some historical information is found in histories of the Han dynasty conquest of northern Korea. An expedition in the Wei dynasty brought data about Sarah Milledge Nelson people all the way north to the Amur River, but the (University of Denver, USA) information is sketchy. For the most part, it is unknown territory to those who study Chinese texts. However, the Dongbei is a region that is beginning to be known from archaeological discoveries, in ways that history never Ⅰ. Introduction Ⅲ. Current Issues in Dongbei Ⅱ.

  • The Cultural Characteristics of Korea's Ancient Kaya Kingdom
    International Journal of Korean History(Vol.8, Aug. 2005) 169 The Cultural Characteristics of Korea’s Ancient Kaya Kingdom Kim Taesik* Introduction Discussions on Korea’s ancient history have for the most part focused on the so-called ‘Three Kingdoms era’ while all but ignoring the history of Kaya. This phenomenon has largely been the result of the emergence of a Silla-based perception of history since the Koryŏ era, and of the acceptance in the modern period of distorted historical notions which have their origins in the Japanese colonial era.1 Nevertheless, truth cannot be hidden forever. In this regard, the archaeological excavations which have recently taken place in former Kaya areas have resulted in a marked improvement in the quality of the Kaya-related studies conducted by Korean and Japanese scholars. 2 However, the results of these recent studies on Kaya have yet to be reflected in the work conducted in the western world. The following are some of the characteristics of the studies on Kaya in the West as viewed through recently published textbooks and encyclopedias.3 1) In most textbooks, Kaya is either not alluded to at all,4 or only mentioned in passing.5 One even finds records in which references are made to Japan’s conquest and colonization of the southern part * Professor, Dept. of History Education, Hongik University 170 The Cultural Characteristics of Korea’s Ancient Kaya Kingdom of the Korean peninsula in the 4-6th centuries that do not contain any references to Kaya.6 2) Substantial references to Kaya are hard to come by in introductory and reference books published in the United States and England.

  • Relationships Between Silla 新羅 and Yamato 大和
    Relationships between Silla 新羅 and Yamato 大和 Sarah Milledge NELSON Introduction A notable number of women ruled in the Silla kingdom of Korea and in Yama- to of Japan, in roughly the same time periods. Is this incidental, or might some connection be implied? Connections are of course notoriously tricky – how can we infer anything about migration of people or diffusion of ideas, about trade, warfare, or other contact between polities, when similarities are found? The specifics escape us if based on archaeology alone, and documents are often open to various interpretations. Nevertheless, in this paper I will note that in both Silla and Yamato women were eligible to rule, along with other cultural traits that I infer belong to the similar Central Asian cultural ancestors of both groups, and explore whether closer ties can be suggested. One avenue is to con- sider the antecedents of both Yamato and Silla, another is to examine the possi- ble existence of a Silla colony in the Japanese islands. When addressing questions of relationships between the Korean peninsula and the Japanese islands in the time period of state formation, it requires repeat- ing that archaeologists and historians need to step back from the nationalism that clouds many approaches to state formation in this region. Gina Barnes made a giant step in this direction by referring to “peninsular societies” and “insular societies” rather than Korea and Japan.1 Neither existed as entities in the time period in question. We should all follow her lead. Prior Work on Three Kingdoms and Yamato There has been little of interest in the connections between the Kingdom of Silla on the Korean peninsula and the formation of the state in the Japanese islands, while interactions with both Paekche 百濟 and Koguryŏ 高句麗 have been studied in book-length format.2 The (largely discredited) “horse rider” theory, which posits “nomads” from the Manchurian polity of Puyŏ 扶餘 by 1 Barnes 1993.
