AB - Jeongamsa handed down that it was founded by monk Jajang who tried to meet Manjusri but not resulted. To this time, we cannot find the clear evidence of Jajang’s trace. The excavation at Jeongamsa in 2013～2014, we get some roof tiles which were made in 9th century, late Silla. So we have clear evidence that this temple was founded late Silla. In late Silla, they told that Jeongamsa was certainly founded by Jajang. The relics of Jeongamsa were concentrated vinaya school of Goryeo. It shows that Jeongamsa was deeply related to Jajang in early Goryeo. This shows that Jajang might go to Odaesan and Jeongamsa. This tradition was generalized at 10th century and transmitted to Dunhuang documents.
Many records wrote about Jajang and Odaesan. But most of them did not say that Jajang found temple at Odaesan besides they said that there was a temporary locate. They said that Jajang founded Jeongamsa (Seoknamwon) altogether. The difference of them were Odaesan faith devided several trends but Jeongamsa kept one tradition. In late Silla, Beomil and his family’s power spreaded strongly to Gangwon Buddhism. With this trend, Jeongamsa record of Jajang was connected to that of Odaesan through Sudasa monk.
Most results of excavation of Jeongamsa were the relics of early Goryeo period. The discuss on Jeongamsa Sumano stupa shows that it was builted in early Goryeo succeed to Silla style. And Jeongam-sa prospered in early Goryeo which stressing vinaya school. Sumano stupa maintained Silla style in its configuration of the ground, structure and upper parts. The history of Jeongamsa has evident position.
A detailed picture of Jeongamsa in late Joseon noticed that this temple was well known for sarira faith based on Sumano stupa. With this sarira the stupa was restored continually. In Gojong period, Heungseondaewongun and Andong Kims family led the reconstruction of the stupa with the whole country. So Jeongamsa was the holy place of sarira faith. At the heart of that faith, there was the Buddha stupa which constructed by Jajang.
