Publications on early Korea and/or archaeology are critical to Korean Studies because the field is so skewed toward modern and contemporary scholarly endeavors. Yet Pan’gudae (romanized as Bangudae in the book), a petroglyphic archaeological site that is at once breathtakingly impressive as it is politically controversial, should be of interest to all Koreanists for its truly ancient depictions of animals, people, and lifeways dating back between two thousand and four thousand years. In addition, the petroglyphic depictions are regionally unique, the site is under threat, and many of the images have all but been rubbed away.
