(Korea's long history)
Today I went to the National Museum of Korea. I can divide the information I learned today in the National Museum of Korea into three big groups. The three groups are each about one topic. First the land of Korea, then periods of time in Korean history, and finally the remains of our ancestors. The conclusion will be about the importance of our culture and history.
Korea is a country placed between China and Japan. It's 1,000 kilometers long and 216 kilometer's wide. The area of Korea is 220,277 sqare kliometer's wide. 70% of it's land are mountains. Korea is divided into two nations, North and South Korea. About at 1890~1950 Korea was very in a state of chaos and got divided into two by America and the Soviet Union(Russia). It was a depressing thing for us Koreans.
The ages of Korea can be divided into two grours. Prehistoric age and the historic ages. Prehistoric ages are divided into Stone age, Bronze age, and Iron age. Stone age is the age that human beings started using stones to make weapons and used fire. also they could farm. The Bronze age is an age that when human race discovered bronze and used it. Bronze was very rare so people who had bronze were very rich or was a tribe leader. So the bronze age can be called the start of difference in social standing. The Iron age is when iron was founded. Iron was easy to spot so it was the time farming tools and weoupons developed. This major spert in history brought a change and techknolgy developed rapidly.
There are lots of remains from our ancestors. I will describe three remains from our ancestors. Hand axes are from the stone age. It's not that sharp but it was useful. Comb patterned potteries are made by soil, fire, and water. It has comb patterns because it looks good and causes friction. Its end is pointed because it is easy to put on soft sand or soil. Dolmens are big stone graves for tribe leaders. It was very hard to make it so the bigger it is the stronger the tribe.
Korean history is long and very deep. It is a very precious and has made non-form super national treasure. Our ancestors Gi(기) must be remembered and protected. We need to make our history only our's not China's or any other country because nowadays China is trying to take Goguryeo and Balhae's history. I think my friends and I need to become history experts and protect our cultural assets. I'm proud and love my nations Gi(기) and history. |
