Translation

[edit]

Korean style fortresses is correct historical terminlogy. Many Japanese or Non-Japanese historians use " Korean-style fortresses" in Japan because during 8th century only Kingdoms or country which Japan had contact were Koreans or Korean Kingdoms. ( Kudara Kingdom). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Koreankudarakansai (talkcontribs) 13:51, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have done what I can to translate the relevant bits from the Japanese Wikipedia article, and to extrapolate the rest from my own knowledge of the period and from a few other Wikipedia articles, both English and Japanese, on related subjects. The main content still needs a lot of work, I would imagine, both in terms of general phrasing and formatting, and in terms of someone with expert knowledge of the subject reorganizing it to express most succinctly and directly the most important elements.

As it stands now, this is more or less just a translation, and a starting point. Please don't hurt me for producing something so half-baked. ^_^ LordAmeth 11:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to "Ancient mountain castle" or "Baekje style mountain castle"

Korean-style fortresses in JapanAncient mountain castle – These fortresses are called "Ancient mountain castle" 古代山城(こだいさんじょう)Kodaisanjyō on the Japanese page. They were inspired by Korean, but also Chinese style mountain city in the 8th century (中国式山城). On the Japanese page the word "korean" is not used. It is described as "It is a generic term for defense facilities built on mountains in western Japan according to the situation against Korea and China from the Asuka period to around the Nara period." First there was Kōgoishi 神籠石(こうごいし) in the 6th or 7th century CE. Then there were the "Tochigi mountain castle" (天智紀山城) or “Baekje style mountain castle” (百済式山城) built under the guidance of General Baekje in 663 CE. On the Chinese page it's also called "Ancient mountain castle (Japan)" 古代山城 (日本). So the name should be changed to "Ancient mountain castle" or "Baekje style mountain castle" the first one is used on the Japanese page. - comment added by Artanisen 10:55, 29 June 2019 (UTC). — Converted to requested move. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:31, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
