Gold Man from Millennial kingdom

The millennial kingdom Silla is often referred to as the kingdom of gold. 

This aspect of Silla is almost similar to the results of recent archaeological excavations. 

  

Here is a royal tomb called Chunmachong excavated in the 1970s in Gyeongju, the millennial capital of the kingdom. 

It is estimated that this tomb, which is not known exactly who was buried, was made in the late 5th century or early 6th century. 

In honor of Silla 's reputation as a kingdom of gold, countless gold products poured out of this grave. I introduce a few of them.

The internal structure of the tomb based on the excavation performance and the arrangement of the remains

The inside of the grave separated the space where the body was buried and the space where the artifact was placed.

It is the space where the owner of the grave was buried.

The body was corrupted and disappeared, but the gold crown, waistband, and various other accessories that he wore had stood still. 

His body was decorated with gold products all over.
