AI Abstract
Gaya was a Korean polity established after 42 CE, existing for 520 years during the Three Kingdoms era, alongside Silla, Baekje, and Goguryeo. Though fragmented historical records persist, archaeological findings, notably Gaya's pottery, offer insights. Gaya pottery evolved from reddish earthenware to unique grayish-blue stoneware in the 4th century CE, influential in Japan's sue ware culture. The pottery, distinguished by mass production techniques, became burial, ritual items, showcasing regional diversity.
