In the investigation of excavated remains, which has been consistently performed in Gyeongju area from the United Shilla period, various roof tiles, which were used according to the national construction project, have been excavated in large quantity. Among roof tiles excavated in this way, the representative remain that draws our attention is the “chimi”, a large traditional roof tile decorating the roof of construction. The chimi was selectively used in authoritative architectures according to purpose and use, which makes its importance greater. However, only a few cases of the excavation of chimi have been found over time, and even if chimi is listed on a report of excavation investigation, it is merely the pictures of a small fragment of chimi or its surveyed maps were mentioned in most cases. Thus, it has been difficult to restore its original shape by identifying its entire appearance or to look into its characteristics and pursue research. However, data concerning chimi in a sound condition have been built up through the investigation of excavations of various remains recently, and it has become possible to obtain data, which would shed light on the manufacturing process by closely observing the manufacturing techniques of chimi.
As a result of summarizing the manufacturing method of chimi, the process was classified into four steps according to the manufacturing flow, and diverse manufacturing techniques were confirmed through the observation of traces left during molding.
The first work is the process of creating frames and clay belts, a clay shape on a clay tablet, and welding traces such as finger tip trace and striking and imprinting traces are confirmed. The clay shape would have been the most important factor affecting the size, shape, and life of the chimi in the initial stage of manufacturing. The second is a process of expressing each part, and various manufacturing techniques are observed.
The third work is a process of adding a scrubbing treatment to the inside and outside of the welded part of the chimi that formed a shape, and the trace of repeatedly applying clay as well as the striking and imprinting traces to enhance adhesion is discovered. There appears to have been a change also in the overall bonding method of the chimi according to the scale of a building. The fourth is a process of expressing patterns on the body or inside the column, and the back part; and a variety of manufacturing techniques and attachment methods are confirmed. The change factors of the manufacturing method include body, the shape by part, and the type of patterns. The chimi made of body with fine particles, is thin and looks reddish brown, whereas the chimi made of body with rough particles is thick and looks gray. Thus, these two show a difference by plasticity degree. During the manufacturing by part, there are also differences in the shape of the head, body, tail, and column, and their manufacturing techniques. There are differences in the arabesque pattern, connected beads pattern, and bead-decorated column patterns, and their placements, as well as the phase of decoration.
As above, the manufacturing techniques and the property, change factors, and change phase of the chimi could be reviewed by summarizing the manufacturing methods of the chimi excavated in Gyeongju area.
