Summary
The Hapcheon Samga Ancient Tomb Complex, excavated by the Dong-A University Museum in 1981, reveals significant cultural interchange among Gaya, Baekjae, and Shilla during the early 5th to late 6th century. Analysis of artifacts, such as 'Short-Mounted Dish' (type II-A · B) and iron-rings, indicates a transition from preceding Gaya culture to Shilla influence, while also highlighting Baekjae's earlier cultural impact on the region. The study employs space-time analysis of excavated remains and structures to demonstrate this dynamic period of cultural exchange in the Hapcheon region.
