Talhae of Silla (?-80, r. 57-80) was the fourth king of Silla, one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. He is commonly called Talhae Isageum, ''isageum'' being the royal title in early Silla. Also known by his personal name as Seok Talhae (昔脫解). ==Background== He was a member of the Gyeongju Seok clan, one of the noble clans that shared the Silla throne during the early Common Era. He was born in a small kingdom 1000 ''li''1 northeast of Wa (Japan).〔三國史記 卷第一 新羅本紀第一 脱解尼師今, 脱解本多婆那國所生也 其國在倭國東北一千里〕 (The name of the kingdom is ''Dapana-guk'' 다파나국 多婆那國2 "Dapana Country" according to Samguk Sagi, or ''Ryongseong-guk'' 룡성국 龍城國 "Dragon Castle/City Country," ''Jeongmyeong-guk'' 正明國 "Proper and Enlightened Country," ''Wanha-guk'' 琓夏國 "(A Kind of) Jade Summer Country," or ''Hwaha-guk'' 花厦國 "Flower Mansion Country"〔三國遺事 紀異 卷第一 脱解王, 我本龍城國人 亦云正明國 或云琓夏國 琓夏或作花厦國 龍城在倭東北一千里〕 according to Samguk Yusa.) His father, King Hamdalpa, was a king of this kingdom; his mother was a queen or princess of another kingdom, called ''Nyeo-guk'' 女国 "Woman Country." According to the Samguk Sagi, when he was born as an egg, his father considered it an ill omen and had it boxed and floated at sea. The egg floated past Geumgwan Gaya and landed east of Gyerim (near today's Gyeongju, South Korea), where he was raised by an old man as a fisherman. His family is said to have taken over a high official's house by claiming to be metalsmiths. His birth year is unknown, but he was probably an old man when he assumed the throne, having married the daughter (or younger sister) of Silla's King Namhae in the year 8. He was offered the throne as successor to the second king Namhae, but the older Yuri served as king first. Yuri in turn designated Talhae his successor. 1li is roughly equivalent to 400–500 meters. 2Tamba no kuni was located 460 km northeast of ''Wa no Nakoku''(倭奴國). 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「Talhae of Silla」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
