• Sommario/riassunto: "Gyeongju was the capital of the Kingdom of Silla in Korea from the fourth century to the tenth century, growing from a loose confederation of villages to become the capital of most of the Korean peninsula. In this volume, the history of this fascinating city, rich in archaeological discoveries, is charted from its earliest periods through its zenith as capital of a brilliant golden era, to Silla's eventual unification of the whole Korean peninsula. Gyeongju is crucial reading for anyone interested in the city, the kingdom of Silla, the history and archaeology of Korea, and early urbanism and state formation in East Asia"--Provided by publisher.
