Archaeometric Characteristics of Roof Tiles in BaekjeKingdom from the Danjiri Site of Gongju, Korea

Sung Yoon Jang,Chan Hee Lee,Dae Sun Park

Abstract

The roof tiles from the tomb in Baekje Kingdom of the Danjiri site in Gongju, Korea were studied for the production techniques and raw material provenance based on archaeometric characteristics. The roof tiles had traditional shapes of Baekje Kingdom, which show flow texture on the surfaces and sections with the roof tiles of hard or soft-type. These roof tiles were locally produced, using refining soils according to mineralogical and geochemical characteristics. Also roof tiles were divided to 2 groups by firing temperature and physical properties. One of them had soft with porous texture and fired probably about 700 to 900°C. The other had hard with vitrified texture and probably fired about 940 to 1,020°C. Buried for long time and used as a tomb, roof tiles had experienced chemical alteration due to the enrichments of trace elements abundant in human tissues.
