Goryeo Dynasty — From Movable Metal Type to Korean Celadon

One of the neat things about teaching history at the SolBridge International School of Business is when I get the chance to use some videos in class. In my Asian Highlights class we are studying the Koryo/Goryeo Dynasty this week.

Nice to have a video to reinforce my lecture.

Some of Goryeo’s major contributions:

Movable Metal Type (the Chinese invented movable type during the Song Dynasty)

Celadon

Improvements in artillery (which would play an important role in the upcoming Hideyoshi invasions during the Joseon Dynasty)
