Haniwa warrior in keiko armor
[Dr. Harris] Haniwa are clay objects, sometimes cylinders, sometimes later in their development, figures and animals.발음듣기
That decorated the tops of tombs in Japan beginning in the third century through the sixth or seventh century.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] These landforms were often surrounded by moats and were originally cleared except for Haniwa, which populated their tops.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] And populated is a really good word because on some of the largest of these tombs, obviously meant for the most powerful people of this time.발음듣기
Sometimes arranged in a circle around the outside, sometimes a cluster of figures toward the center.발음듣기
All of this clay is low fire and unglazed and that gives it its characteristic reddish color.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] Well, if you have 10 to 20 thousand of these to make when somebody dies, you need to do it quickly.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] Although I imagine, just like in many other cultures, a rule often made arrangements for their funerary objects or their tomb even while they were alive.발음듣기
So many may not have been made at the last minute, but this is all clearly for rulers and elites.발음듣기
They seem to have developed into the houses that we spoke of and that was followed then by animals.발음듣기
And the figures and animals are of a remarkable variety, so there's a sense both of agriculture, of farming, of livestock or chickens and ducks and other kinds of fowl.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] In fact, there's one lovely female figure here touching her breast with one hand and offering a cup with another who is beautifully, luxuriously dressed with a necklace and a bracelet.발음듣기
And her garment is both painted and incised, and it's a good reminder that many of these were painted.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] It suggests to me that the clothing represents their station in life, and that's what was important.발음듣기
It wasn't important who they were individually, but rather the part that they would play in the afterlife of the ruler.발음듣기
He's got a quiver on his back, and he's completely covered in a Japanese style of armor known as keiko, plates of armor that hang.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] You can even see that he's wearing a wrist guard to protect his left arm from the string of a bow after he unleashes the arrow.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] And what's wonderful here in this museum is that we have examples of the armor.발음듣기
Plates are joined together with metal rivets, and those are represented by small little buttons of clay on this Haniwa.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] So we're talking about iron plates that have been either fastened together with rivets, or, in other cases, perhaps tied together with leather.발음듣기
If you look at the scabbard that holds his sword, you can see that it's tied with a string that wraps around the back of his waist on either side.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] And speaking of ties, you can look down the backs of his legs and see how his armor was held together.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] I love the way that the flaps that come down from the helmet to protect the sides of his face frame that face and create a shadow that creates a kind of dimensionality that is a little bit rare in Haniwa, which tend to be quite flat and cylindrical.발음듣기
And we know that the earliest Haniwa were simple cylinders, but even as they develop into human figures, so much of the form remains cylindrical.발음듣기
We talked about the level of detail in the armor, but in other areas when we look at the bodies of Haniwa, the arms are too short, the legs are too short.발음듣기
