Recent Developments in East and Southeast Asian Archaeology I: Material Culture Studies
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 82nd Annual Meeting, Vancouver, BC (2017)
The archaeology of East and Southeast Asia continues to grow with new scholars, projects, and methodological developments. The dialogue across borders keeps expanding as well, albeit modestly. As in previous years, we wish to bring together scholars to encourage cross-cultural, cross-border, and cross-disciplinary discussions regarding two world regions that have a long history of interaction. As always, the number of participants exceeds by far the number of slots available in one session, so there will be two symposia on Recent Developments in East and South Asian Archaeology focusing on different aspects of research. This first part brings together papers on material culture studies covering both a wide geographic area and range of time periods. These papers explore recent research on metal technology, ceramic production, and beads, but also issues of looting and other questions of field research.
