Visitors From the Sea: Were Hareubang introduced by visitors from the sea, as suggested in the article as one explanation? If so, who were these visitors from the sea? The similarities to other basalt statues in the Polynesian world seem obvious: made from similar material; A cap or hat on the head; large eyes; arms on the belly, one higher than the other; found on island locations.

There is more to this story than the article conveys. See here:

Interesting article, but it doesnt say when the totems were built. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 222.149.75.88 ( talk) 02:25, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Dol harubang is very similar to some Slavic pagan idols. Komitsuki ( talk) 14:38, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
The female versions of these statues are referred to as dol hareumang 돌하르망, "stone grandmother" in Jeju dialect. As souvenirs in this honeymoon resort, the small statues are often sold as a male/female couple two piece set.
Would suggest adding the name for the female version. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.51.185.32 ( talk) 21:54, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
The history section places a lot of emphasis on what I would term the "mushroom theory", that dol hareubangs were linked to a shamanic movement linked to hallucinogenic mushrooms. This seems like a fringe theory to me, as the article on Amanita muscaria notes that this is a popular topic for anthropological speculation unconstrained by things like evidence. Indeed, such a movement is not mentioned in the article on Korean shamanism. Unless this has some reliable sources it should probably be removed. For now I will create a section for the dubious content and tag it to warn readers. 67.188.230.128 ( talk) 20:30, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
