About: Igeum-dong

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Igeum-dong is a complex archaeological site located in Igeum-dong, Samcheonpo in Sacheon-si, South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. This prehistoric archaeological site is important in Korean prehistory because it represents solid evidence that simple chiefdoms formed in as early as the Middle Mumun, some 950 years before the first state-level societies formed in Korea. The settlement is dated by pottery, pit-house types, and an AMS radiocarbon date to the Late Middle Mumun Pottery Period (c. 700–550 BC). Test excavations were conducted in 1997, and wide-scope horizontal excavations took place in 1998 and 1999.

  • Igeum-dong is a complex archaeological site located in Igeum-dong, Samcheonpo in Sacheon-si, South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. This prehistoric archaeological site is important in Korean prehistory because it represents solid evidence that simple chiefdoms formed in as early as the Middle Mumun, some 950 years before the first state-level societies formed in Korea. The settlement is dated by pottery, pit-house types, and an AMS radiocarbon date to the Late Middle Mumun Pottery Period (c. 700–550 BC). Test excavations were conducted in 1997, and wide-scope horizontal excavations took place in 1998 and 1999. The site contains a megalithic cemetery with 63 burials, some of them with artifacts of high-status, 25 raised-floor buildings, including the two largest raised-floor buildings in Korean prehistory, 5 ditches, 1 palisade, and 27 pit-houses. The intra-site patterns show that the site is divided up into at least three ‘zones’: 1) mortuary, (2) feasting-meeting, and (3) residential. (en)
  • Igeum-dong (coréen 이금동) est le nom d'un site archéologique de l'Âge du bronze, représentant le Mumun moyen (-700 à -550) et situé près de la ville de Sacheon, en Corée du Sud. Il montre que des chefferies se sont formées en Corée dès cette époque. Ce site contient un cimetière de 63 tombes, dont certaines sont richement dotées, 25 maisons à plancher surélevé, dont les deux plus grandes connues de la Corée préhistorique, 5 fossés, une palissade et 27 maisons semi-enterrées. La structure interne montre que cet établissement était divisé en au moins trois zones : l'une mortuaire, l'autre pour les fêtes et la dernière résidentielle. (fr)
