Tile with Hunting Scene

This tile is decorated with a vivid scene of a hunter on horseback targeting a deer with his bow and arrow, providing useful details about hunting methods, horseback riding, and the style of bows during the Unified Silla period. For shooting arrows from horseback, Silla hunters probably used a Korean traditional composite bow, which was more compact and easier to maneuver than standard bows.
