Religious Syncretism in Silla
Indigenous influence on Sukkuram mid-8th century. Exterior mound not an actual cave/excavated cavern. Took slabs of rock and stacked them up - chamber. On top of it, piled dirt and turf. Reminiscent of tumulus tomb. Conscious gesture towards local tradition. Shamanistic beliefs about evil spirit. Included a lot of daily items: wings of birds thought to provide spirit of dead to fly off safe. Burial practices: corpses would face East: main Buddha also faces east where the sun rises. Buddha is not the historical Buddha but sun Buddha (Vairocana, cult of the sun) everything in construction planned for a specific reason. Layout arranged in perfect symmetry: power to the particular site, having perfect balanc would enhance the cosmic power in the site.
