Abstract:
"This year, we celebrate the 45th anniversary of the excavation of Hwangnamdaechong. This burial has been receiving much attention from the domestic as well as international academic world. The enormous mound and elaborate gold ornaments unearthed from it make us give full play to our imaginations. However, a lot of works still remain to be done for a systematic analysis and meticulous restoration of Silla culture."--Foreword, p.7.
