The 2 nd floor display room gives us a good idea
of Yeoju's long history, which began in the Paleolithic
Age. There are stone utensils and tools, excavated
in Neungseo-myeon and Gangcheon-myeon and used by
ancient Yeoju residents during the Paleolithic Age.
Next to these, is an illustration of the history
of rice farming in Korea. A diorama was built to
give visitors a better idea of what it was like
to live during those times.
Also on display is a model of a burial mound and
stone, a good representation of how strategically
important, militarily speaking, Yeoju was during
the period of the Three Kingdoms.
Nearby are displayed artifacts such as a rain hat,
a fur-lined hood, an ink stone, a brush and an ink
slab. There is also a diorama of the traditional
folk play, “Ssangryong Geojuldarigi,” which won
the President's Award at the National Folk Play
Competition. Also on display are the convex and
distinguished tiles, which were first used in the
8 th century. Finally, there are also displays of
excavated ceramic artifacts, which were made over
a thousand years ago giving evidence to the fact
that Yeoju is indeed the ceramics capital in the
country. |
