He studied classical philology and archaeology at the University of Göttingen, then continued his education with Heinrich Brunn (1822–1894) at Munich (1871).

In 1900, with his brother Alfred, he began the first excavation at Gordion, an ancient Phrygian city in Asia Minor. In 1904 the two brothers published their archaeological findings in a treatise called ''Gordion: Ergebnisse der Ausgrabung im Jahre 1900''. Also, he conducted significant investigations of the necropoli at Orvieto and Tarquinia. With Adolf Klügmann (1837–1880), he continued edition of ''Etruskische Spiegel'', a project involving systematic study of Etruscan mirrors that was initiated in 1843 by Eduard Gerhard (1795–1867). == References == * ''This article is based on a translation of an equivalent article at the German Wikipedia''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gustav Körte」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
