Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to explore the actual state of the intercultural relations between the Japanese archipelago and the Korean peninsula during the Kofun period, I conducted archaeological analyses of the metalwork uncovered from both regions. I focused specifically on two types of metalwork, namely, pendant earrings and ornamental swords, personally conducting observational analysis of each artifact both in Japan and Korea. Combining the typological method based on attribute analysis and observation surveys of the artifacts, I clarified how the metalworking techniques possessed by Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, and Daegaya interacted with one another against the changing political backdrop of the Korean peninsula and how these skills spread to the Japanese archipelago.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日韓両国の出土資料を一律に、かつ悉皆的に扱って、技術的視点からより詳細な系譜関係を整理できたことは、従来の金工品研究とは一線を画する成果といえる。結果、日本列島出土資料の製作地や工人系譜について、歴史解釈へと昇華し得るより踏み込んだ具体的分析が可能となった。 このように、古代の日朝関係の在り方について、出土資料の考古学的分析に基づく客観的な交流史像の一端を示せたことは、大きな社会的意義につながると考える。
