Abstract

A convergence research was conducted on glass beads excavated at the ruins of Hapgang-ri, Sejong, using the archeology and conservation approach. The period of appearance of Jugu Towangmyo in the ruins of Hapgang-ri can be estimated to begin in the late 2nd century; for Jugu Towangmyo No. 15, the period spans from the late 2nd to early 3rd century. Form, color, and manufacturing techniques of complete glass beads were examined, and the cross-sections and chemical composition of 16 samples were observed. Based on these analyses, the glass beads were divided into blue, purple, and red colors. The blue-colored beads could be further sub-divided based on their gloss and brightness; in contrast, the red-colored beads were highly uniform with regard to these parameters. Based on the stripe and bubble arrangement on the surface of the glass beads, their drawing technique was identified. Traces of heat treatment or polishing were observed at the ends of the beads. According to their chemical composition, the 16 samples were classified into 3 potash glass and 13 soda glass groups; in the latter, the properties of the stabilizers were divided according to the blue and red bead colors. The stabilizers of the red beads are unique in that they allow the distinction among beads excavated in other areas in South Korea owing to their compositional differences. Colorants in blue- and red-colored beads are cobalt (containing MnO), and copper and iron, respectively.

본 연구는 세종 합강리 유적을 중심으로 발굴 유적과 유물을 조사한 고고학적 접근과 주구토광묘 15호에서 유일하게 출토된 유리구슬의 표면, 단면, 조성 특성을 분석한 보존과학적 접근으로 구분하여 융합적 연구를 시도하였다. 묘의 형태와 출토유물을 통한 고고학적 연구에서 합강리 유적은 주구토광묘의 등장 시기가 2세기 후엽부터이고 유리구슬이 출토된 주구토광묘 15호 편년은 2세기 후엽~3세기 초엽으로 추정할 수 있다. 유리구슬 완형은 형태, 색상 및 제작기법을 파악하고 유리구슬편 16점은 단면관찰과 화학 조성을 분석한 결과에서 청색 계통은 감청색과 자색으로, 적색 계통은 적갈색으로 구분되며 세부 색상에서 청색 계통은 광택과 명도에 따라 다양하게 분포하나 적색 계통은 균일도가 높게 나타난다. 제작기법은 표면의 줄무늬와 기포배열에서 늘인기법으로 확인되며 구슬 양 끝부분에서 열처리나 연마 흔적도 관찰된다. 유리구슬 편 16점의 화학 조성은 포타쉬유리군 3점과 소다유리군 13점으로 분류된다. 소다유리군 13점에 대한 안정제 특성은 청색과 적색 계통에 따라 구분된다. 이중에서 적색 계통의 안정제 특성은 지금까지 다른 지역에서 확인된 적갈색 유리구슬과 다른 조성으로 구분되는 점이 특이하다. 착색제는 청색 계통이 MnO 성분을 함유한 코발트(Co), 그리고 적색 계통은 구리(Cu)와 철(Fe)이다.
