본 논문은 지금의 베트남 남부 메콩강 삼각주 지역에서 출토된 목조불상에 대한 시론적인 연구이다. 지금까지 알려진 바에 의하면 메콩강 삼각주 지역에서는 약 서른여 점의 목조불상이 출토되었다. 이들은 옥 에오(Oc Eo) 등 동남아 최초의 국가였던 푸난(Funan)의 주요 유적지에서 발견되었고, 대개 6세기 무렵으로 추측되므로 푸난의 불상으로 간주할 수 있다. 이 불상들은 석조불상과 함께 동남아 초기 불상의 양상을 보여준다는 점에서 중요한 자료이다. 푸난 목조불상은 방사성탄소연대측정법과 양식적 특징을 종합하면 대부분 6세기 무렵에 만들어진 것으로 보인다. 현재까지 공개된 푸난 목조불상 가운데 형상을 비교적 확실히 알아볼 수 있는 8점에 대해 도상과 양식을 분석하였는데, 이들은 자세와 착의법, 수인에 따라 네 가지 유형으로 구분할 수 있었다. 세장한 신체와 몸에 달라붙는 대의의 표현은 기본적으로 인도 굽타시대 사르나트 불상 양식을 공통적으로 따르고 있었으나, 유형에 따라서는 직립한 자세와 편단우견형의 착의법, 스리랑카 불상에서 주로 보이는 설법인(vitarka mudra)을 보이는 등, 남인도 불상 양식도 발견할 수 있었다. 이는 푸난의 불교조각가들이 인도의 주요 불상 양식을 적절히 섞어 새로운 불상 양식을 창안했음을 알려준다. 이와 함께 주목되는 것은 푸난 목조불상의 출토 현황이다. 같은 유적에서 발견된 비슷한 시기의 힌두신상은 나무로 만들어진 예를 찾아볼 수 없는 데 반해, 불상만은 유독 나무로 많이 만들어진 현상에 대하여 불상과 나무라는 재질 사이에는 단순한 제작상의 이유가 아닌 보다 밀접한 관계가 있을 수 있음을 상정해 보았다. 불교 문헌상 전해지는 최초의 불상은 바로 전단목이라는 나무로 만들어진 '우전왕상'이다. 우전왕상은 비슷한 시기인 6세기 무렵 중국 남조에도 알려져 있었는데, 흥미롭게도 남조에는 푸난에서 가져왔다는 '전단서상'이 있었다고 전한다. 이는 우전왕상에 대한 이야기가 푸난에도 공유되어 있었을 가능성을 시사하며, 나아가 푸난에서 나무로 불상을 다수 제작하게 된 주요 동인으로 작용했을 가능성이 있다.

동남아시아 고대 항시국가 푸난의 외항인 베트남 옥 에오 유적에서 채집한 9점의 유리구슬에 대한 관찰 및 분석결과 형태는 환옥, 색상은 적갈색, 벽색, 녹색, 흑색 및 감청색, 화학조성은 소다유리군으로 고대 한반도에서 출토되는 유리구슬과 형태, 색상, 화학 조성이 유사함을 확인할 수 있었다. 발굴조사가 아니라 지표채집으로 확보한 9점의 유리구슬이므로 자료적인 한계가 있기는 하지만 옥 에오유적 채집 유리구슬이 기본적으로 한반도의 유리구슬과 유사한 제작기법과 화학조성을 보인다는 점을 확인한 점에 의미가 크다. "일본서기(日本書紀)" "흠명기(欽明紀)"에 543년 백제 성왕이 푸난의 물품과 노예 2명을 일본에 보낸 점을 고려할 때 백제와 푸난 사이에 직접, 혹은 간접적인 교섭이 이루어졌음이 확실하며 그 물품 중에 유리구슬이 포함되었을 가능성이 높아졌다.

This essay is for a study on the survey of buddhist cultural literary document about the Southeast Asia by Nanqishu(南齊書), Liangshu(梁書), Chiu T'angshu(舊唐書), Hsin T'ang shu(新唐書) which are included in the Chinese Official History and Jí-shénzhōu-sānbăo-găntōng-lù(集神州三寶感通錄), Weioshu Shilao Ji (魏書 釋老志). These documents allows us to imagine next some historical states. First, these documents are recording this area, especially Funan, as a plentiful diggings of gold, silver, tin, copper, etc. These are important materials for gilt bronze sculptures. Further, this local produced gold called 'Yangmai(楊邁)' is recognized as same as Zĭmòjīn(紫磨金) in china, and these documents explains the process of producing the bronze images and golden ornaments in Southeast Asia. Specially, this plentiful materials leads them to make a 10 wei(圍) tall golden-silver image which worshiped as hindu god or sometimes buddhist images. Second, Vietnam and Funan in Northern and Southern Dynasty periods were in antagonistic relationship not only in the political but also in religious between Vietnamese Hinduism and Funan's Buddhism. Under this situation, the monk Nagaxian(那伽仙) who had came from India was accredited to Southern Qi court as a delegate to build a good relationship by the common religion Buddhism. It means the Buddhism of Southeast Asia also took a role of diplomacy. Third, these documents proved the active Southeast Asian cultural exchange in early 3th century. At this time, Funan delegate Suwu(蘇物) visited the court of Kushan Dynasty in India and he is seemed to travel the city of Pātaliputra. It oppressed us to extend our outlook which have been restricted in the relationship between Southern india and Southeast Asia to more broaden area. In addition, the buddhist art of Southern India and Bodhgaya temple was imported to Southeast Asia directly to send to Southern China. For example, the wooden buddha image, Bodhgaya stupa image, and Sri Lanka style's buddha images are looked be introduced to Southern China at this time throughout the Southeast Asia. At last, we got to know that the court music of Kucha in the northern silk route was imported to the Southeast Asia in early middle age. Even it may be introduced by China, but this document is very important to make the surmise is not unreasonable that the buddhist culture of northern silk route imported to the Southeast Asia accompanied with Kucha music. The buddha images in Gandharan style which are excavated from some site of Southeast Asia may demonstrate this literary sources is authentic.

India, Southeast Asia in general, and Siam in particular share a long history of cultural and commercial relations. Located in each other's extended neighbourhood, India and Thailand have a shared maritime boundary in the Andaman Sea. Situated in the strategic position, midway between West Asia on the one hand and East Asia on the other, India and Siam combined played a significant role in the maritime transactions in Asia and beyond. The geographical proximity between India and Siam led to multifaceted maritime interactions and exchanges. Siam was in the Indian sphere of cultural, religious, philosophical, technical, and linguistic influence much before the Common Era. The cultural and mercantile networks between India and Siam are well-attested by archaeological and literary sources. The archaeological findings in Siam and other Southeast Asian countries have revealed the dynamic trade and cultural exchange between India and Southeast Asia since the pre-Common Era. The Takola (modern Takua Pa) area served as a more suitable landing place for Indian merchants and there existed the settlement of the Indian mercantile community. Ligor (Nakhon Si Thammarat), Jaya (Chaiya), Patalung (Phatalung), U Thong, Ban Don Tha Pet, Ban U Taphao, Khao Sam Kaeo, and many other sites in Siam have brought to light a large variety of objects which demonstrate that ancient Siam had close mercantile contact with India as well as the Mediterranean world and China. The paper discusses in detail the cultural and trade links between India and Siam and their impact on the Maritime Silk Road.

Even Faxian(法顯)'s Gaosengfaxianchuan (『高僧法顯傳』) and Iching(義淨)'s Nanhaijiguineifachuan (『南海寄歸內法傳』) are regarded as very important and useful documents to study the southeast asian buddhist culture, it is very difficult to grasp the contemporary state of those area because their descriptions are very brief and implicit. Therefore this essay aimed an in-depth reading their documents as original texts of modern understanding of those area, and tried to make a new views to approach the southeast asian buddhist culture by some more historically and concretely. At the early 5th century when Faxian(法顯) arrived, Buddhism was flourished in Sri Lanka. Because already a long time passed since the Saṇgha was schismatized into conservative and progressive at around the dominical year, he mentioned nothing about the conflict or disharmony of two orders. And the faith of Buddha tooth relic, which had been uprisen at 50 years ago from Faxian's visiting, was concretely established as a representative religion of Sri Lanka. According to his record, the carrying ritual of this Buddha tooth was performed very magnificently as similar with recent Korean Youngsan ceremony(靈山齋). In the mean time, it looks there were many sculptures of Buddha image made of precious stone of special product from Sri Lanka. The faith of Buddha-pāda(the Buddha's foot-prints) was also generalized at that time. The most famous monk of his contemporary Sir Lanka was Buddhaghosa, the author of Visuddhi-magga, but it is not sure that Faxian had met him. It can be suspected that the funeral in which Faxian participated could be belonged to him, or the Visuddhi-magga was writing at the peak during Faxian's staying. On the way to return to China, Faxian embarked an indigenous ship around Indonesia. It means there were no chinese trade ship which he can use. So the trade between china and southeast asia was advanced by south asian ships, and the chinese ships were not yet joined at that time so activity. And at least until that time, it looks there were no any remarkable buddhist movement in the southeast asian countries by where he stopped. In contrast, the southeast asian world which be seen by Iching had already experienced a lot of changes. He was impressed by the high quality buddhist culture of those area, and insisted to accept it to china. Further, he analyzed the sects of buddhism which were prevalent around the southeast asia in his contemporary time, and tried to make a good relationship with each native monks for learning from them. It looks the center of those exchanges may be Śrīvijaya of Indonesia. He also mentioned the situation of the late 7th century's Funan(扶南) in Cambodia. At that time, the buddhist Saṇgha was oppressed by newly rising Khmer(眞臘). On the other hand, he described the points of sameness and difference in detail between Indian and southeast asian buddhist culture in the field of ritual as like the practical use of garments, buddha images, and daily recited scriptures. There must be a lot of another aspects which this essay couldn't gather up or catch from these documents. Nevertheless, I hope this essay can help the researchers of this field and will wait for any advices and comments from them.
