Cultural relics presumed to belong to the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392) were found in the former South Korean presidential compound of Cheong Wa Dae in central Seoul, the CHA said. Historians say there was a secondary palace of Seoul, which was called Namgyeong (Southern capital) by the ruling class of Goryeo based in today’s Kaesong in North Korea, at the site. Among the relics discovered were pieces of earthenware and tile from the two periods.
