Excavation and investigation of prehistoric sites in Korea started during the Japanese colonial period, but it was only after the 1970s that it became full-fledged. Numerous excavation and research institutions, including national institutions, are still conducting excavations. However, the excavation report, which is the result of excavation research, is not being serviced on a single integrated platform. As a result, integrated knowledge or research on prehistoric sites in Korea is not being properly formed. In order to construct information on prehistoric remains in Korea, it is necessary to connect the scattered excavation reports and various information related to the remains in a systematic context and form a digital archive. For this, it is desirable to utilize digital humanities methods such as content curation and visualization through digital map construction. In this study, we proposed a Korean prehistoric information service as an open archive by analyzing the status of prehistoric information services in Korea, curating contents of prehistoric information, and building a digital map.
