As their name indicates, Liaoning-style bronze daggers are a distinctive type of bronze weapon that developed primarily in the Liaoning region of present-day China. A representative artifact of Gojoseon, they were used as grave goods in dolmens, stone-lined tombs, and pit graves throughout the South Jeonnam region starting from around the ninth to eighth century BCE. These daggers have mainly been identified in the eastern parts of the Jeonnam region.
