Due to recent increase in excavation investigations in Yeongdong region, Gangwon, materials needed for chronical recording of each era have been secured. Particularly, there is an ongoing work to record chronologically the basics of the Bronze Age and advancement and expansion of Shilla Ancient Tomb during the Age of the Three States. However, in case of the Iron Age, the residences of 10-ho, Byeongsan-dong, Gangneung and of 2-ho Gapyung-ri enable only so much as to retroactively locate the historical age to the third century B.C.; there is still a gap vis-a-vis the clay pottery stage across all era. As an alternative to this gap, there has been a suggested version that assumed a migration of "Tuanjie-krounovka culture" people to the northern east part of the Korean peninsula. However, after studying excavated materials, it was found that there were many problems in assuming the migration of these people. Therefore, in noting the upper bound of the Iron Age, there must be accurate investigations on sand-dune regions and some inland area. For a lower bound as well, it is noted that the time of expansion of Shilla Ancient Tomb during the Age of the Three States is considered to be at least at the end of the fourth century or the beginning of the fifth century; thereby making the gap in fourth century more apparent. The remains that correspond to this gap period have been confirmed recently in Songjeong-dong, Donghae and Geumjin-ri, Gangneung. Looking at recently disclosed data in various brochures, hard and no motif earthenware was present up until the fourth century, and lattice designed Do-Jil earthenware was also said to be present. Therefore, there must be a new explanation for Gangmun-dong remains, Gangneung, Byeongsan-dong remains, Anin-ri remains, Geumjin-ri remains, Songjeong- dong remains, Gangneung, and Jigyeong-ri remains, Yangyang, which have been recorded to be chronologically earlier than they actually are.
