 History of Gayageum

 By Samguksagi, before 1400 years, King Gasil of Gayaguk made gayageum like a Chinese instrument Zheng. But, long neck jar that considered as made wehn King Michu(A.D. 262~284) was on the throne, tells us, that it was in Korea before King Gasil's gayageum. And also, stringed instument Go that excavated from Gyungsan and presumed as made in A.D. 1. So, there could be a gayageum that made bofore King Gasil's gayageum. Also, Gayageum was sexcavated in Shinchang, Guangju, 1977. At that time, that adre was Mahan of Samhan(Three han) which was full of agricultural industry and the people were enjoying high level culture. Normally, this instrument was played by nobles or the higher not the ordinary people. Also, instrumental that looks similar with this was excavated in Gyungsan, Gyungsangbukdo, 1977, but only has a trace of paint. Also, in Changwon, Gyungsamnamdo tomb of dahroi, similar instrument was excavated. By these facts, there were many stringed instrumental in southern Korea. By reference from Samgukji uijidongijun, instrument Seul was in the Byunjinhand and it looked like an Chook. So there was a instrument that not belong to Seul or Chook. So, King Gasil may be unifired individual Gayageum's size and shape and also mde an 12 string gayageum.
