Abstract |
In this study, stylobate and stone terrace were categorized in terms of topography adjustment to analyze their time-periodic characteristic and
distribution of building use. The purpose of this categorization was to apply the drawn conclusion to the layout composition and comprehend
the meaning of its application. To attain this particular purpose, 236 state-designated cultural heritage sites and 78 ruined temple sites were
examined. As a result, the phenomenon of integrating stone terrace and stylobate in the mid-Goryeo dynasty was identified. This integrated
form was universally used throughout mid-Goryeo regardless of the building use. The usage of the stylobate was different between the central
building and the independent building, and the integrated stylobate on the stone terrace was mainly used in the central building. The reason
for this seemed to be caused by the stratification composition and the method of placing it on a slope. Subsequently, the form of land
composition was further diversified due to functional factors and arrangement order, and thus stylobate on the stone terrace was used as the
means of space composition. |
