Buyeo National Museum is a national museum located in Buyeo,Chungcheongnam-do,South Korea. Since Buyeo was once the capital of the Baekje kingdom during the Sabi period (538-660),the Museum is fully devoted to the Baekje culture. [1]
It was moved from the downhills of Buso Mountain to the current location.
It is the royal road of Sabi Baekje,where ancient Baekje culture blossomed the most splendidly,and its footsteps and true appearance can be easily found. Under this cultural background,the Buyeo National Museum has a history of about 80 years,starting with the Buyeo Antiquities Preservation Society,which was launched in 1929. [2]
Main display of the museum is Gilt-bronze Incense Burner of Baekje. In particular,the museum preserves and manages the cultural heritage of Baekje,including prehistoric culture in western Chungcheongnam-do. Representative relics include Baekje Geumdong Daehyang-ro,Geumdong Gwaneum Bodhisattva,and Sansu phoenix-patterned bricks.
Baekje or Paekche was a Korean kingdom located in southwestern Korea from 18 BC to 660 AD. It was one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea,together with Goguryeo and Silla. While the three kingdoms were in separate existence,Baekje had the highest population of approximately 3,800,000 people,which was much larger than that of Silla and similar to that of Goguryeo.
The Three Kingdoms of Korea or Samhan competed for hegemony over the Korean Peninsula during the ancient period of Korean history. During the Three Kingdoms period (Korean: 삼국시대),many states and statelets consolidated until,after Buyeo was annexed in 494 and Gaya was annexed in 562,only three remained on the Korean Peninsula:Goguryeo,Baekje and Silla. The "Korean Three Kingdoms" contributed to what would become Korea;and the Goguryeo,Baekje and Silla peoples became the Korean people.
