Interpretation on article of matrimony between Daegaya(大加耶) and Silla(新羅)’s royal families, which is from NihonShoki, was reviewed for each issue and the essence of realistic interests for such marital relationship. Also, it also reviews whether conclusion and maintenance of such relationship between them can be understood as a military alliance. The marital relationship between the two nations was concluded in A.D. 522(Samguksagi) and maintained until A.D. 529(NihonShoki); the expression of ‘Gyeoldang(結儻)’ indicates that the marriage itself was a ceremony of alliance. Garawang(加羅王), who was recorded as the groom and the main agent coping with breaking the alliance, was a title for foreign, and Arisadeung(阿利斯等) for domestic. Garagiburichika(加羅己富利知伽) was a vassal who carried Garawang’s orders. Garawang had separately placed 100 servants of Silla’s princess in order to claim the representative nature of Daegaya out of all Gaya nations. The incidental disguise of transition from Silla attire to Gaya attire seems to be an espionage of Silla to intensify inside spilt of Countries of Gaya and disturb consolidation of them. Thus, it is adequate to consider Silla as the main agent who attacked the third and fifth castles after breakdown of marital relationship. Common interests that led to marital relationship between Daegaya and Silla are related to Baekje(百濟)’s advances against Gaya since the late 5th century and checks against Wa(倭). In 487, Daegaya advanced to Jangsu and Imsil where are the upper regions of Geum River and Seomjin River. As Baekje merged Gimunguk(己汶國) of Namwon in A.D. 513, Daegaya interrupted Baekje’s southward advance around regions in Jinju, Hadong, and Gwangyang starting in March, A.D. 514. It also shut off the connection with Japan by destroying Japanese naval forces at the mouth of Seomjin River. Meanwhile, Silla needed to build friendly relationship with Daegaya in order to prevent Daegaya leaning onto Baekje and keep Wa in check. While the marriage proposal brought up by Daegaya in A.D. 522 was one of its surviving strategy to prevent Baekje’s advance, Silla saw it as a way to control the power of Northen Gaya and Daegaya, which were unfolding aggressive military provocation, and complete the plan for advance to Southern Gaya such as Gimhae and Changwon. In the article on matrimony, although neither a term that indicated alliance nor a case that functioned as military alliance during seven years of marriage was found, there are examples of marriage between ancient royal families showing that it could function as a form of building military alliance. The examples include the followings: Naje marital alliance functioning as military alliance; alliance between Silla and Tang(唐) at Chwirisan(就利山) in Woongjin(熊津) region in August of Moonmuwang(文武王)’s fifth year, including promise of marriage between Silla and Baekje; achievement of mutual defence alliance by Goguryeo(高句麗) and Daebanggun(帶方郡) with marital relationship; and Wa(倭)’s invasion as Silla not accepting the marriage proposal. Such examples can provide the evidences of understanding marriage between Daegaya and Silla royal families as a military alliance.
