In 1971, the tomb of King Muryong of the Baekje Kingdom was discovered and excavated at Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do Province. 

From this tomb, a great number of artifacts were unearthed. The excavation revealed that the tomb was buried with King Mureung, the 25th king of Baekje along with his queen. 

The two coffins in the picture are of kings and queens, respectively. 


On the way to the tomb from outside the grave, this kind of a table setting for the couple was found. 


Among the many excavated artifacts, those are bronze golden shoes for the queen. 

The items excavated from the royal tomb are constantly on display at the National Museum of Gongju. 

King Muryeong (462–523, r. 501–23) was the 25th king of Baekje, one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. During his reign, Baekje remained allied with Silla against Goguryeo, and expanded its relationships with China and Japan.
