Silla (sh)




Kingdom of ancient Korea that in AD 668 consolidated Other polities on the Korean peninsula under the Unified Silla dynasty (668-935).

Traditionally believed to have been founded by Hy?kk?se in 57 BC, Silla emerged as a full-fledged kingdom in the 6th century. In the reign of King Chinh?ng (540-576), a unique military corps, the hwarang (see Hwarangdo), was organized; allied with Tang-dynasty China, it defeated the Korean state of Paekche in 660 and Kogury? in 668, then expelled the Tang forces to create a unified and independent Korean state. It adopted a Chinese bureaucratic structure, but its aristocracy was never replaced by a bureaucratic class based on merit. Silla Art before unification shows a tendency toward abstraction; postunification Art reflects Tang naturalism.
