On a hill top of Korea's southwestern city of Namwon sits a series of tombs that date back to the ancient Gaya Kingdom, that lasted for more than a thousand years, until it collapsed in the sixth century.And from these old Gaya tombs here, some 200 artifacts, including rare gilt bronze shoes and a bronze mirror, were excavated.This is the first time gilt bronze shoes, although severely damaged, were found from tombs of the Gaya Kingdom.So far they have been excavated from tombs of the Baekje Kingdom, another ancient Korean Kingdom that was located in the southwest region of the Korean Peninsula.The uncovered bronze mirrors are estimated to have been buried some 30 years ahead of Korea's national treasure bronze mirror number-one-hundred-and-sixty-one."Considering other burial items like earthen pots and the shape of the tomb, I'm guessing it dates back to roughly 475 or 500 B.C."Korea's archaeologists say, the excavated artifacts will be groundbreaking resources in studying the relations between the ancient Korean Kingdoms.Park Ji-won, Arirang News.
