Research Abstract

Kaya, written in a number of ways with different Chinese characters, is the name of a loose federation of kingdoms that flourished in the lower reaches of Nakdong River in the 4th to 6th centuries during the Three Kingdoms Period when Koguryo, Paekche and Silla kingdoms prevailed. With little historic records and archaeological relics, history of Kaya was not clear. The remarkable results of the recent excavations of many tombs and sites in southern Korea has revealed that Kaya kingdoms, with rich resources of iron ore, actively traded with Japan.
Based on these recent excavations in Kaya, we compared some remains of tombs in the Kaya and Japan. As aresult of our comparison, we found :
(1) that Japanese Sue ware was appeared by influence of Gray Stoneware in midstream area of Nakdong River.
(2) that early harness of the japanese Archipelago resembles harness of Kaya.
(3) that Japanese cuirass in 5th century was influenced by making technique of cuirass in Kaya.
