Scope note
Refers to the period that coincided by the rule of three families in Korea, from 37 BCE - 668 CE. The ruling families consolidated their authority by abolishing the council of clans and passing on the title of ruler first from brother to brother and then from father to son. Notable artifacts remaining from the period include richly decorated tombs that show Chinese influences.
