The purpose of this study is to classify of the ancient belt, `the Gwathai`, especially in the times of three countries. For this purpose the Gwathai was classified as to the motif which was decorated on the plate of the Gwathai, and also another parts of the Gwathai were studied. The Gwathai could be classified of three parts. The fist, rectangular plate and the hanging part with heart motif, and the second, reverse-heart plate. The character of the third part was the specificity of the plate motif. Alos there was a hagning part at the Gwathai and it was organized with the diverse form. At first it was used for the practical purpose, and then later for the decorational purpose. But this study could`nt reveal the chang channel of the Gwathai and the relation between region. This is the limit of thsi study. So more study is necessary to clarify this point.
