The Gold Crown from the Cheonmachong Tomb!

In the middle of the 4th century, Silla was governed by a ruler known as the Maripgan. The Maripgan and his family demonstrated their authority with ornaments made of gold, silver, and gilt-bronze. A golden crown was the most important of these ornaments. The Gold Crown excavated from the Cheonmachong Tomb is the most complete and splendid example among Silla’s surviving golden crowns.
