Summary

[edit]
Description

"A Baekje gilt-bronze cap is a decoration symbolizing one's social status. It was usually found in the tomb of rulers. Its form takes on a cylindrical shape and there are some caps with prong-shaped ornaments attached to them. There were many cases where the gilt-bronze cap was buried with high quality articles such as gilt-bronze shoes, and Chinese ceramics. These are usually found in relics of the period when Baekje was consolidating the Mahan confederacy."
