Korean Cultural Heritage Overseas Database in Service

The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage (國立文化財硏究所) opened an online database of Korean Cultural Heritage Overseas (http://overseas.nricp.go.kr). This database contains photo images and brief explanations on artifacts ranging from the Neolithic stone tools to the twentieth century lacquerware tables that museums in American, Asian, and European countries have collected. This website is in service only in Korean.
