Kimhae Kara (English spelling)

Japanese: 金海加羅 - きんかいから（英語表記）Kimhae‐Kara

A powerful state among the ancient Gaya states of Korea. Also known as Geumgwan Gaya, Daegaya, Kuya Kingdom, Gaya Korea, Garak Kingdom, Mimana Gaya, and Mimana. Centered in present-day Gimhae County, South Gyeongsang Province, Gimhae-eup, the site of the royal capital, has many ruins and was developed from early times. In the 3rd century, it flourished as a key point of maritime traffic for the Han people, Wajin countries, and the Lelang and Daifang counties. In 400, it was a powerful state that was the main target of attacks by the Goguryeo army that moved south. Japanese academic circles believe that the Mimana Nihonfu, the base for the Yamato court's advance into Korea, was established here after the 4th century, but no documents, ruins, or artifacts have yet been found to prove this.

朝鮮古代の加羅諸国中の有力国。別名は金官加羅，大伽耶，狗邪（くや）国，狗邪韓国，駕洛（から）国，任那（みまな）加羅，任那。現在の慶尚南道金海郡を中心とし，王都址の金海邑には多くの遺跡があり，早くから開けていた。3世紀には韓族，倭人諸国および楽浪･帯方両郡などの海上交通の要衝として栄えた。400年には南下した高句麗軍の主要な攻撃目標となる有力国であった。日本の学界では4世紀半以降に大和朝廷の朝鮮進出の基地である任那日本府がこの地におかれたとしているが，そのことを証明する文献や遺跡，遺物はまだ確認されていない。
