One Hundred Days in the Cave
According to radiocarbon dating, the presence of humans on the Korean peninsula dates back to 40,000 to 30,000 BC. It seems that art, or decoration at least, did not exist until 4,000 BC when the inhabitants of the peninsula began making pottery with comb patterns scraped or scratched into the clay before hardening.
Clans were absorbed into other clans. Fishing, farming, and hunting.
The introduction of metal from the Han civilization brought with it improved farming and an ability to make visible social hierarchies through the production of symbols of power such as dolmens (burial chambers).
And also through the production of more effective weapons.
Earl of Wind, Master of Rain, and Master of Clouds.
These were worshipped by the natives before sun worship replaced such totems.
