'Gaya Academy' Held with University Students in Gyeongnam Province

15 History Major University Students in July Undergo Cultural Heritage Research Theory and Field Practice Training

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] Gyeongsangnam-do and the Gyeongnam Research Institute History and Culture Center announced that starting from the 5th, they will operate the '2021 Gaya Academy' for university students majoring in history within the province.

Since the adoption of the national agenda for research and restoration of Gaya history in 2017, Gaya history has been re-evaluated, increasing the need to train specialized personnel for continuous research and restoration investigations.

Accordingly, Gyeongnam Province has been conducting the Gaya Academy in cooperation with local universities since last year.

This year, the number of participants has been expanded to include 15 students from the history departments of Gyeongsang National University, Gyeongnam National University, and Changwon National University.

The education will be conducted in two sessions from the 5th to the 13th, with each session lasting four days.

Participants will learn methods of investigating buried cultural assets, engage in excavation field practice, and conduct cultural heritage surface surveys around the Haman Gayari site and the Nammun Outer Tomb Cluster area.

Additionally, they will visit the Namwon Yugok-ri and Durak-ri tomb clusters to study the territory and movement of Gaya's power, gaining an opportunity to understand the excellence of Gaya culture and its inscription as a World Heritage.

In November, specialized Gaya history education is planned for cultural tourism interpreters active within the province.
