A Comparative Study on Arms and Armor in East Asia

通过对日本列岛、韩国半岛和中国出土的武器和盔甲资料的比较，可以清楚地看出这些地区之间的交流。另一方面，各地区的特色和独创性的数据也变得清晰起来。在日本列岛，从弥生时代开始，弓箭等进攻性武器和盔甲等防御性武器发生了变化，相互影响。在世纪中期，新的进攻性武器和防御性工具同时出现。这些基本上是骑兵的装备，很明显，他们是从中国东北地区和高句丽经南朝鲜半岛进入日本群岛的。世纪在中国东北地区出现的重骑兵的马穿盔甲的服装也在韩国半岛的最南端出土， ...更多信息 可以肯定的是，两者是同一个家谱。然而，在日本列岛，由于马的盔甲和头盔的发掘非常罕见，因此认为骑兵的全套装备几乎没有传播。这种情况表明，骑兵的装备并没有与骑兵战斗一起引入，而是作为性能更高的新型武器和盔甲被采用。当时的日本列岛不需要全副武装的骑兵。东亚各地区军备的不同也是作战方式的不同，而在防御设施方面，高句丽古墓壁画上的城墙和地面城堡的高堡，在日本列岛都没有发现。这些事实使人们有可能认为，武器和装甲是为日本群岛的战斗准备的装备。此外，至于马，有一个事实，即马的工具介绍早于骑兵的服装。因此，有必要考虑到，选择是为了接受当时需要的东西。少

By comparing the data of the arms and armor excavated in the Japanese Islands, the South Korean peninsula, and China, the data which shows the exchange between these areas became clear. On the other hand, the existence of the data which is characteristic of each area and shows the originality of that area also became clear.In the Japanese Islands, since the Yayoi period, offensive weapons including bows and arrows and defensive implements such as armor had changed, affecting each other. In the middle of the 5th century, the new offensive weapons and defensive implements were introduced simultaneously. These were fundamentally outfits of cavalrymen and it became clear that they were brought into the Japanese Islands from the northeast area in China and Koguryo via the South Korean peninsula. The outfits of heavy cavalrymen in which the horse wore armor materialized in the northeast area in China in the 4th century were excavated also at the South Korean peninsula southernmost end, and i … More t can be confirmed that both are the same genealogy. However, in the Japanese Islands, since excavations of the armor and the helmet of a horse are very rare, it is thought that full outfits of cavalrymen hardly spread.This situation shows that outfits of cavalrymen were not introduced together with the cavalry battle, but that they were taken in as new-type arms and armor with higher performance. Full outfits of cavalrymen were not needed in the Japanese Islands of those days. The difference of the armaments in various regions of East Asia was also a difference of the battle method.Furthermore, as for defensive facilities, the rampart drawn on the mural painting of the Koguryo ancient tomb and the high bulwark involving a ground castle have not been discovered in the Japanese Islands. These facts make it possible to think that arms and armor were prepared as equipment for the battle in the Japanese Islands. In addition, as for the horse, there is a fact that horse implements were introduced earlier than outfits of cavalrymen. Therefore it will be necessary to take into consideration that selection was made in order to accept things which were required at the time. Less
