다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In Korean ancient society, several state have the symbol of the State likely, Bear in Gojosun(古朝鮮), Tiger in Dongye(東濊), Deer in Buyeo(夫餘), Chicken in Shilla(新羅) and Falcon in Baekje(百濟). Koguryo were succeeded Gojosun(古朝鮮), Buyeo(夫餘) and Dongye(東濊) geographically and culturally. Those states also combined in cultural and politically by Koguryo. As things turn out, the symbol of the those states maintained in the Koguryo society as the minor position. The evidences are maintained in mural paintings. Especially the oldest paintings, Kakje tomb(角氐塚), Jangchun tomb No.1(장천１호분) are composed so many animals like deer, tiger and so on. In those tomb paintings, the Bear were described so specially compare to another animals. In Kakje tomb(角氐塚)mural paintings describe bear and tiger under tree, which watch the ssirŭm match(korean wrestling). This scene is evaluated as the symbolic representation for Tangun(檀君)-Myth, foundation myth of Gojosun. Based on Samkukyusa(三國遺事), chicken is the symbol of the Founder of Shilla, especially the Kims.(金氏). This case means that the bear in the Koguryo(高句麗) mural paintings is the symbol of Gojosun.
Another part, this awareness of Tangun(檀君) in Koguryo(高句麗) Age is originated by the founder myth of Sonobu(消奴部) which the pre-Koguryo(高句麗) tribe. It based on Dongmyungwangpyun(東明王篇).
