Relic

Sarira pots along with a wide range of offerings were excavated from the sarira hole of the Stone Pagoda. The sarira pots comprise an inner gold sarira pot, an outer gilt bronze sarira pot, and a glass sarira bottle. The outer sarira pot comprises a lid and body, and the body can be opened and closed in the middle. An ‘L’ shaped groove is made in the lower body part and a flat nail is fixed in the upper body part, allowing them to be twisted and locked together. The lid and body are divided into areas along a diagonal line, and engraved with lotus petal patterns, honeysuckle arabesque patterns, and lotus arabesque patterns etc. using mojo or chukjo cutting techniques, while the empty spaces have been filled with fish egg patterns and bead patterns.
