This research aims to explore the construction of Silla royal tombs in terms of the regulations. It is widely accepted that some ideas of the Chinese funeral law(喪葬令) were introduced to Silla during the early mid-Silla Period(中代). However, the Tang(唐) funerary law was partly adopted only for the funerals of high-ranking government officials, which was far from its complete adoption and enforcement. Instead, Silla had its own funerary law since the reign of King Jijeung(智證王). The law during King Jijeung’s reign was mainly about mourning(喪) rather than entombment(葬). It implies the rise of new Silla state fundamentally different from the one under the rules of Maripgans(麻立干), who needed impressive burial mounds in order to legitimise their authorities. Meanwhile, the royal tombs of mid and late-Silla Period(中ㆍ下代) show considerable variability. King Munmu(文武王)’s will illustrates that, in the early mid-Silla Period, king’s own will largely determined the way of entombment, in contrast to that of mourning which was prescribed by the law. It led to the variability in the royal tombs, which was ideologically supported by the introduction of the Gilhyungyorye(吉凶要禮) from Tang during the reign of King Sinmun(神文王). This is because the Rites for Unfortunate Affairs(凶禮) imported to Silla was the version amended not to include the funerary rites of emperor. As a result, in Silla, king’s own will or the mind of the next successor of the throne continued to influence the form of the royal tombs. This is why the Royal Mausoleum(陵園) of the mid and late-Silla Period lacks complete uniformity. However, it does not mean the immaturity of Silla’s system. This is because it was rather based upon the proper understanding of the transition of the Chinese funerary rites.
