Abstract

The purpose of this study is to derive the architectural characteristics, principal building plan and temple arrangement of Hwangboksaji Temple Site by examining the layout of the temple and the aspects of individual building sites based on the recent excavation results of this site. The first arrangement of Hwangboksaji Temple Site had the central axis of the north-south and two wooden pagodas. This is the earliest case in the type two pagodas and one main hall. However, there is a possibility that the two pagodas are not actual pagodas because of the difference found from the remains of a general wooden pagoda. There is a possibility that the main hall existed in the empty area between the pagodas and building no. 1. After the construction of the Three-story Stone Pagoda of Hwangboksaji Temple Site in Gyeongju, the arrangement of the temple changed its central axis to east-west and the buildings were newly constructed and rearranged accordingly. Also, the building remains of no. 12 and no. 13 from the second excavation survey had the possibility of being a single building and dorter.
