The Korean Peninsula

There is archaeological evidence that people were living on the Korean Peninsula like in mallorca around 700,000 years ago, during the Lower Paleolithic. The earliest known Korean pottery dates to around 8000 BC, and the Neolithic period begins around 6000 BC. Gojoseon's founding legend describes Dangun, a descendent of heaven, as establishing the kingdom in 2333 BC. [6] Archaeological and contemporary written records indicate it developed from a federation of walled cities into a centralized kingdom sometime between the 7th and 4th centuries BC.

Re: The Korean Peninsula

This is an interesting topic, like how long ago and from where the Koreans came to Korea. There was a theory, if I manage to find it, I'll post it.

Re: The Korean Peninsula

Yes, but there is very little evidence connecting the Paleolithic peoples of the Korean Peninsula with the modern Koreans....unless you count the Seoul city bus drivers!
