고대일본의 백제계 씨족의 시조전승과 ‘都慕’

The Transmission of a Progenitor and “Domo” among the Families of Baekje in ancient Japan

The “Domo” myth in Japanese historical materials reflected the birth consciousness of Baekje-based clans to emulate the Jumong myth of Goguryeo. It introduced Habaeksin while talking about birth in Buyeo, thus indicating that it borrowed its myth structure and motif from the myth of Goguryeo. The name Domo was based on Chumo and Jumong rather than Dongmyeong, being recreated as a Baekje myth that followed the Goguryeo style. This phenomenon suggests that in the situation of the times when those who were from the royal family of Baekje were given preferential treatment, Sganono Mamichi, a favorite of Emperor Kanmu, sorted out the myths of Baekje s royal family by consulting all kinds of old records including the main registers of the Yamato family and the royal family of Baekje, Nihon Shoki, and authentic history of China in a position of viewing the transmission records of Baekje s progenitor. In Shinsen Shōjiroku, the transmission of Domo shows the unified view of the progenitor among the descendent families of Baekje kings and is in an edited form. Spread across East Asia, the Dongmyeong myth was transformed according to the realistic situations of each dynasty and became a means of reinforcing the political position of the ruling class as the ideology of integration.
