Buyeo<ref name=Escher>Template:Cite journal</ref> (Template:Korean; {{#invoke:IPA|main}}; Template:Zh), also rendered as PuyŏTemplate:Sfn<ref name="Pak">Template:Cite journal</ref> or Fuyu,<ref name=Escher/><ref name=Pak/><ref>Template:Cite journal</ref><ref>Template:Cite book</ref> was an ancient kingdom that was centered in northern Manchuria in modern-day northeast China. It had ties to the Yemaek people, who are considered to be the ancestors of modern Koreans.Template:Sfn<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Buyeo is considered a major predecessor of the Korean kingdoms of Goguryeo and Baekje.

According to the Book of the Later Han, Buyeo was initially placed under the jurisdiction of the Xuantu Commandery,<ref>"夫餘本屬玄菟", Dongyi, Fuyu chapter of the Book of the Later Han</ref> one of Four Commanderies of Han in the later Western Han. Buyeo entered into formal diplomatic relations with the Eastern Han dynasty by the mid-1st century AD as an important ally of that empire to check the Xianbei and Goguryeo threats. Jurisdiction of Buyeo was then placed under the Liaodong Commandery of the Eastern Han.<ref>"獻帝時, 其王求屬遼東云", Dongyi, Fuyu chapter of the Book of the Later Han</ref> After an incapacitating Xianbei invasion in 285, Buyeo was restored with help from the Jin dynasty. This, however, marked the beginning of a period of decline. A second Xianbei invasion in 346 finally destroyed the state excepting remnants in its core region; these survived as vassals of Goguryeo until their final annexation in 494.<ref>La Universidad de Seúl, 《Seoul Journal of Korean Studies,》, Vol.17, 2004. p.16</ref>

Mythical originsEdit

File:History of Korea-001.png
Proto–Three Kingdoms, c. 1 AD.

The mythical founder of the Buyeo kingdom was Hae Mo-su, the Dongmyeong of Buyeo which literally means Holy King of Buyeo. After its foundation, the son of heaven (Hae Mo-su Template:Korean) brought the royal court to his new palace, and he was proclaimed to be King.Template:Citation needed

Jumong, the founder of Goguryeo, is described as the son of Hae Mo-su and Lady Yuhwa (Template:Korean) who was the daughter of Habaek (Template:Korean), the god of the Amnok River or, according to an alternative interpretation, the sun god Haebak (Template:Korean).<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>Template:Excessive citations inline

HistoryEdit

Archaeological predecessorsEdit

The Buyeo state emerged from the Bronze Age polities of the Xituanshan and Liangquan archaeological cultures in the context of trade with various Chinese polities.Template:Sfn In particular was the state of Yan which introduced iron technology to Manchuria and the Korean peninsula after its conquest of Liaodong in the early third century BC.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>Template:Page range too broad

Relations with Chinese dynastiesEdit

In the later Western Han (202 BC – 9 AD), Buyeo established close ties with the Xuantu Commandery, one of Four Commanderies of Han according to the Book of the Later Han volume 85 Treatise on the Dongyi,<ref name="ReferenceA">Book of the Later Han Volume 85 Treatise on the Dongyi</ref> although it proceeded to becoming a nominal tributary-state and practical ally of Eastern Han in 49 AD.Template:Sfn This was advantageous to the Han as an ally in the northeast would curb the threats of the Xianbei in western Manchuria and eastern Mongolia and Goguryeo in the Liaodong region and the northern Korean peninsula. The Buyeo elites also sought this arrangement as it legitimized their rule and gave them better access to Han's prestige trade goods.Template:Sfn

During a period of turmoil in China's northeast, Buyeo attacked some of Eastern Han's holdings in 111, but relations were mended in 120 and thus a military alliance was arranged. Two years later, Buyeo sent troops to the Xuantu commandery to prevent it from being destroyed by Goguryeo when it sent reinforcement to break the siege of the commandery seat.Template:Sfn In AD 167, Buyeo attacked the Xuantu commandery but was defeated.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> When Emperor Xian (AD 189 – AD 220) ruled Eastern Han, Buyeo was reclassified as a tributary of the Liaodong Commandery of Han.<ref name="ReferenceA" />

In the early 3rd century, Gongsun Du, a Chinese warlord in Liaodong, supported Buyeo to counter Xianbei in the north and Goguryeo in the east. After destroying the Gongsun family, the northern Chinese state of Cao Wei sent Guanqiu Jian to attack Goguryeo. Part of the expeditionary force led by Wang Qi (Template:Korean), the Grand Administrator of the Xuantu Commandery, pursued the Guguryeo court eastward through Okjeo and into the lands of the Yilou. On their return journey they were welcomed as they passed through the land of Buyeo. It brought detailed information of the kingdom to China.<ref>Ikeuchi, Hiroshi. "The Chinese Expeditions to Manchuria under the Wei dynasty," Memoirs of the Research Department of the Toyo Bunko 4 (1929): 71-119. p. 109</ref>

In 285 the Murong tribe of the Xianbei, led by Murong Hui, invaded Buyeo,<ref>Patricia Ebrey, Anne Walthall, 《East Asia: A Cultural, Social, and Political History》, Cengage Learning, 2013, pp.101-102</ref> pushing King Uiryeo (依慮) to suicide, and forcing the relocation of the court to Okjeo.<ref>Hyŏn-hŭi Yi, Sŏng-su Pak, Nae-hyŏn Yun, 《New history of Korea:Korean studies series》, vol.30, Jimoondang, 2005. p.116</ref> Considering its friendly relationship with the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Wu helped King Uira (依羅) revive Buyeo.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> According to accounts in the Zizhi Tongjian and the Book of Jin, the Murong attacked the Buyeo and forced the Buyeo to relocate several times in the 4th century.<ref name=Escher/>

Goguryeo's attack sometime before 347 caused further decline. Having lost its stronghold on the Ashi River (within modern Harbin), Buyeo moved southwestward to Nong'an. Around 347, Buyeo was attacked by Murong Huang of the Former Yan, and King Hyeon (玄) was captured.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>Template:Page needed<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>Template:Page range too broad Originally, the Murong Xianbei created the Yan states, with five states emerging during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, and thus were able to do so.

FallEdit

According to Samguk sagi, in 504, the tribute emissary Yesilbu mentions that the gold of Buyeo could no longer be obtainable for tribute as Buyeo had been driven out by the Malgal and the Somna and absorbed into Baekje. It is also shown that the Emperor Xuanwu of Northern Wei wished that Buyeo would regain its former glory.Template:Citation needed

A remnant of Buyeo seems to have lingered around modern Harbin area under the influence of Goguryeo. Buyeo paid tribute once to Northern Wei in 457–8,<ref>Northeast Asian History Foundation, 《Journal of Northeast Asian History》, Vol.4-1-2, 2007. p.100</ref> but otherwise seems to have been controlled by Goguryeo. In 494, Buyeo was under attack by the rising Wuji (also known as the Mohe, Template:Korean), and the Buyeo court moved and surrendered to Goguryeo.<ref>La Universidad de Seúl, 《Seoul Journal of Korean Studies,》, Vol.17, 2004. p.16</ref>

Jolbon BuyeoEdit

Many ancient historical records indicate the "Jolbon Buyeo" (Template:Korean), apparently referring to the incipient Goguryeo or its capital city.<ref name=":0">Template:Cite journal</ref>Template:Page range too broad In 37 BC, Jumong became the first king of Goguryeo. Jumong went on to conquer Okjeo, Dongye, and Haengin, regaining some of Buyeo and former territory of Gojoseon.<ref name=":0"/>Template:Page range too broad

CultureEdit

According to Chapter 30 "Description of the Eastern Archerians, Dongyi" in the Chinese Records of the Three Kingdoms (3rd century), the Buyeo were agricultural people who occupied the northeastern lands in Manchuria (North-East China) beyond the great walls. The aristocratic rulers subject to the king bore the title ka (加) and were distinguished from each other by animal names, such as the dog ka and horse ka.Template:SfnFour kas existed in Buyeo, which were horse ka, cow ka, pig ka, and dog ka, and ka is presumed to be of similar origin with the title khan. The ka system was similarly adopted in Goguryeo.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />

Buyeo is north of the Long Wall, a thousand li distant from Xuantu; it is contiguous with Goguryeo on the south, with the Eumnu on the east and the Xianbei on the west, while to its north is the Ruo River. It covers an area some two thousand li square, and its households number eight myriads. Its people are sedentary, possessing houses, storehouses, and prisons. With their many tumuli and broad marshes, theirs is the most level and open of the Eastern Dongyi archerian territories. Their land is suitable for cultivation of the five grains; they do not produce the five fruits. Their people are coarsely big; by temperament strong and brave, assiduous and generous, they are not prone to brigandage... For their dress within their state they favor white; they have large sleeves, gowns, and trousers, and on their feet they wear leather sandals... The people of their state are good at raising domestic animals; they also produce famous horses, red jade, sables, and beautiful pearls... For weapons they have bows, arrows, knives, and shields; each household has its own armorer. The elders of the state speak of themselves as alien refugees of long ago. The forts they build are round and have a resemblance to prisons. Old and young, they sing when walking along the road whether it be day or night; all day long the sound of their voice never ceases... When facing the enemy the several Ka themselves do battle; the lower households carry provisions for them to eat and drink.Template:Sfn{{#if:Records of the Three Kingdoms, 30|{{#if:|}}

The same text states that the Buyeo language was similar to those of its southern neighbours Goguryeo and Ye, and that the language of Okjeo was only slightly different from them.Template:Sfn Based on this account, Lee Ki-Moon grouped the four languages as the Puyŏ languages, contemporaneous with the Han languages of the Samhan confederacies in southern Korea.Template:Sfn

LawEdit

Buyeo had a law that makes the thief reimburse the price that is equivalent to twelve times of the original amount the person stole, and had an eye to eye approach in terms of law.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

LegacyEdit

In the 1930s, Chinese historian Jin Yufu (金毓黻) developed a linear model of descent for the people of Manchuria and northern Korea, from the kingdoms of Buyeo, Goguryeo, and Baekje, to the modern Korean nationality. Later historians of Northeast China built upon this influential model.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Goguryeo and Baekje, two of the Three Kingdoms of Korea, considered themselves successors of Buyeo. King Onjo, the founder of Baekje, is said to have been a son of King Dongmyeong, founder of Goguryeo. Baekje officially changed its name to Nambuyeo (South Buyeo, Template:Korean) in 538.<ref>Il-yeon: Samguk Yusa: Legends and History of the Three Kingdoms of Ancient Korea, translated by Tae-Hung Ha and Grafton K. Mintz. Book Two, page 119. Silk Pagoda (2006). Template:ISBN</ref> Goryeo also considered itself a descendant of Buyeo through their direct ancestral ties with Goguryeo and Baekje. This is seen in their representation of palace names that were named after former kingdoms that were considered their forefathers.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
