What time period (century) are these from?

Anyway to get a bigger blown up version of that?
Aren't those pics of Medieval/Early Rennaisance Koreans? Say, 15th/16th century?
They were united back then eh? Cause i heard that they, like the Mongols had to be unified first.
Sorry for my total lack of knowledge on the Koreans, but they're not mentioned alot.
One of them reminds me of a Minoan Charioteer. :)
I've tried resizing the images, it wouldn't work, probably because I don't know how to do it. Sorry about that. The only suggestion I have is to set the image as your desktop wallpaper, because since your screen is larger than the picture than your computer will probably automatically resize the whole image to fit your screen.Quote:

The Kingdom in Korea's medieval period was called Choson. These are the Choson armor.

The Kaya Federation was a federation of independent city-states in the Three Kingdoms period (the kingdoms in that time period were Koguryo, Paekchae, Shilla). But they didn't last very long before their stronger neighbors absorbed them into their territory, that's why we didn't call it the Four Kingdroms period.
More pics to follow I hope.
Anyone know the artist?Quote:
