The clay sculpture "Dog ū (Mia)" from the prehistoric Jomon period in Japan
Over the years, archaeologists have discovered many different types of clay sculptures - dog ū - dating back to the prehistoric Jomon period in Japan (1400-800 BC). Various forms have been unearthed in northeastern Japan, some sitting, some standing, some with almost no surface decoration, while others, like this example, are known as the "goggles" type, with unique large eyes adorned with colors and complex carved decorations. The popular theory suggests that they are talismans related to health and childbirth, and after use, they are intentionally destroyed and disposed of. They are now collected at the Minneapolis Institute of the Arts.
The statue of the Song Dynasty in the Korean Dynasty
This work demonstrates the persistence of Buddhism and its religious practice during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), even after Neo-Confucianism became the state religion. It is difficult to determine which Buddhist deity this statue represents due to the lack of a crown, but it can undoubtedly be classified as a bodhisattva (meaning "awakening person"). This work is from the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910) period. The Joseon Dynasty was the last feudal dynasty in the history of the Korean Peninsula. The capital of the Korean dynasty was in Kajing, the old capital of Koryo (now Kaesong; Also known as Songdu), the capital was set in Hanyang (now Seoul) in 1394 and was renamed Seoul the following year.
