Talk:Suda Hachiman Shrine Mirror

Dubious theory edit

I am not convinced that the following has clear merit:

With this inscription Kim Woon-Hoe supposes Emperor Keitai and King Muryeong of Baekje are brothers. [1] A mirror was excavated from the tomb of King Muryeong. It is similar to the mirrors of Emperor Nintoku and Emperor Keitai. In the ancient Buyeo kingdom, the bronze mirror represented the king.

The edit history shows that this short text has not been ignored; and other editors whose opinion I value saw fit to leave this paragraph in place. For this reason, my guess is that simply removing this paragraph without explanation is probably not the only way to proceed. Something more is needed. --Tenmei (talk) 04:46, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

I tweaked the first sentence, which is posted below so that it can be more easily compared with the above:
"On the basis of this ancient inscription, Korean scholar Kim Woon-Hoe theorizes a fraternal relationship between Emperor Keitai of Japan and King Muryeong of Baekje."<:ref name=kim>야마토 왕조의 중시조, 게이타이천황은 무령왕의 아우 Pressian (Seoul). December 5, 2008.</ref>
