Introducing Hanyang University Museum.
Goryeo and Chosun Dynasty Era
In Korea, various types of tombs have been constructed since the Prehistoric period, and this tradition continued into the Historical period, with their traces still vividly visible today. The term Ancient Tomb historically refers to old burial sites, but specifically denotes the representative tombs of the ruling class in each era. An Ancient Tomb has a standardized form, featuring a wide tomb area, a large mound, and funerary objects (grave goods). Therefore, Ancient Tombs serve as important materials for understanding the political and social status of the deceased, as well as the prevailing conditions and society of the time. This exhibition focuses on funerary objects excavated from Ancient Tomb Complexes and is dedicated to understanding the society of the Goryeo Dynasty.
