Remains of possible sixth century palace found in southern S. Korea

Archaeologists have found the remains of what appears to be a sixth-century palace of Ara Gaya, a city-state kingdom that existed in the Korean Peninsula's southeastern area and had exchanges with the ancient Korean kingdoms of Silla and Baekje, and Japan, a state-run archaeological think tank said Thursday.
 
 Ara Gaya, also known as Ana Gaya, Asiryangguk and Alla, was a city-state kingdom in the Gaya confederacy of chiefdoms and was situated around what is now the town of Haman in South Korea's South Gyeongsang Province, from 42 B.C. to A.D. 559, according to descriptions of the kingdom in Korean and Japanese ancient history books.

Hard to believe it's taken this long to find.  A very heavily populated country.
Fools mock, tongues wag, babies cry and goats bleat.
