Silla originated from Saro State in Gyeongju Region from 12 Jinhan countries in the southeast part of the Korean peninsula. It annexed small states around it and expanded its territory. Silla announced laws in the 6th century and completed an ancient state system by

accepting Buddhism to lay a foundation for politics and thoughts. It also annexed Dae Gaya (562) and paved the way for unification. Silla Culture is represented by wooden chamber tombs with stone mounds and Buddhism. Golden crown and earrings excavated from wooden

chamber tombs with stone mounds are one of the most splendid and excellent gold handcrafts in the world that even entitled Shilla to be known as ‘the country of gold”. Along with Bone rank system, Buddhism exerted a significant influence over Silla society and dominated

the spiritual world of Silla people. On the other hand, the foreign artifacts excavated in Gyeongju region and the traces of western culture found in burial mound figures reflect the state’s overseas exchanges and international aspect.
