Registrar in the Portrait of the Deceased on the northern wall of the antechamber.
This is a detailed view of the registrar in the Portrait of the Deceased on the northern wall of the antechamber in Tokhung-ri Tomb.
The figure in the image can be seen holding a brush and recording information in a register. A similar figure is depicted in the Portrait of the Deceased in Anak Tomb No. 3 with an inscription that reads "Gisil," indicating that this was the term used in the Koguryo era to refer to clerical workers. This figure is wearing an official hat that appears to be a civil servant Chaek (Headwear worn by civil servants and military attachés. Civil servants wore Chaeks with tops that were split in the back and curving forward. Military attachés wore Chaeks with cone-shaped points.).
