Gochang area is one of the most famous place in the world for the Dolmen of the ancient stone monument.
Nobody knows the reason why there are so many Dolmen in Gochang area.
Actually Korea has the most Dolmen in the world.
And nobody knows why the dolmen were concentrated in this area.
Strangely enough it was my first time to drop by Dolmen in Gochang, even though I had traveled this area several times before.
It was regrettable this visit was not so perfect condition for me to look around Dolmen area.
I had some pain on my knee, and it was not comfortable to walk through the up-and-down terrains.
There was a museum for Dolmen. The design of the building was so excellent.
The motif of the design was the Dolmen.
But it was somewhat sorry that the contents of the museum were not so .....
It was said that Dolmen were made in the Bronze ages.
It was an early stage of chiefdom when the dolmen had been made.
Even in this chiefdom society, they could organize this kind of works needed high level of cooperation.
The reason why Gochang is famous for Dolmen was Many Dolmen were concentrated in one area.
You could see the most Dolmen in one place in the world, here in Gochang.
I could look around only one area close to the museum due to my painful knee.
Though, it was an one area, I could see the several types of Dolmen.
Originally Dolmen was the grave tomb, but only few Dolmen have been excavated until now.
The proper investigation and study must be needed in near future.
In this posting, I’d like to show you the panoramic scene of Dolmen.
At the end of the slope of the hill, there were amount of small pieces of stones which must be the remaining in the process of making Dolmen.
It seemed that Dolmen were scattered without any order at first glance.
But if you look at carefully, you could find out there was some kind of order.
In next posting I’d like introduce the appearances of Dolmen more in detail.
Ah, prehistoric archeology is fantastic. Also in my region there are several Dolmens
I'd like to see dolmens in your region.
I would also like to discover what those Dolmens in Gochang for myself @slowwalker and see what they mean and who built them. They are truly a masterpiece of the ancient world but I am seeing that they commemorate some ancient rulers of might and power, maybe some Ancient Korean leaders and I am not surprised if that will be.
Thank you,
I think so, it must be the tombs of the rulers of the ancient society.
Then how the ordinary people in the ancient society had been buried ?

고인들이 한반도에 유난히 많이 존재한다는 것이 참 신기합니다
혹시 성경에 나오는 에덴동산이 한반도가 아니었을까요~~ㅎㅎㅎ
오래된 유물을 보면 참 기분이 묘해집니다.
찾아 다니면 재미 있습니다

이걸보니 , 전에 자전거를 타러 갔다가
고인돌을 보러 간 기억이 나네요..^^
정말 어떻게 이렇게 했을까 궁금하기도하고 신기했었느데..
선조들은 참 대단한 것 같습니다^^
삶을 무겁게 본 것 아닐까요
오호... 또 그렇게 생각하니까 또 다른 발상이 나오네요..
한마디에 이렇게 팩트가 들어왔다니;;; 소름돋았네요
