국문 초록 (Abstract)

This paper examines BiriByeokjungPomijibangosa Town(比利피中布彌支半古四邑), which was shown in the article for the year 49 in Shingong chronicle(神功紀) in Nihonshoki. The purpose of this paper is to examine the positions and geographical nature of these regions, as well as the historical meaning of the conquests of these regions during the rule of King Geunchogo. First of all, since the article for the year 49 in Shingong chronicle(神功紀) contains the point of view of the compiler of Nihonshoki, the article was based on historical facts. This article describes King Geunchogo`s conquests for Mahan power. That is why the stages of the conquests should be reconstructed from Baekje`s point of view. These regions were assumed to be the regions in Jeonbuk and these conquests were not related with King Geunchogo`s conquests for Mahan power in Jeonnam regions. Next, when King Geunchogo of Baekje led a conquest, BiriByeokjungPomijibangosa Town surrendered. Given that these regions were indicated as Towns, these regions are considered to have been already under the area of influence of Baekje, and were also included in Baekje`s territory when King Geunchogo led the conquest. This is an article that shows Baekje`s advancement into the Jeonbuk regions. This advancement can be considered as the first stage of the conquests when the article was revised to be focused on Baekje. If the article in Shingong chronicle(神功紀) is considered to be describing the conquests led by Baekje, then the arrival at Chimmitarye(침彌多禮) can be revised to the second stage of the conquests. The second stage is different from the first one in the sense that the regions under Baekje`s area of influence were subjugated. Also, the second stage is different in time from the first stage because it shows that Baekje seized Jeonnam regions centering on strong points in coasts. Finally, the article regarding the conquests of the seven Gaya nations should be understood as something that indicates the fact that Baekje entered into trade with Gaya and Japan, rather than describes facts. During the period of King Geunchogo, Baekje secured strong points in the southern coast and secured trade routes in Gaya regions to prepare the footholds for trade with Japan.
