Thailand has a rich archaeological past where scholars have worked on various aspects. Thought the pre-historic Thailand is well known to us, the regions’ epigraphical records have been in recent times not subject to a rigorous multi-disciplinary study. However, it may be noted that several new interpretations have come forth, which shed new light on the historical past of the region. At the same time, the newly discovered inscriptions especially from north and northeastern Thailand await a proper evaluation in the hands of experts. The region’s proximity to Cambodia might further help us in re-assessing the hydraulic superiority of Khmer kings and the contemporary religious scenes of this part of fascinating southeast Asia. The panel proposed plans to include at least one speaker from Cambodia. At the moment there are already three paper proposals committed, one by each of the organisers and one by a Sanskrit and Khmer language expert with special reference to the region’s epigraphy.

Session Details
\nProposed Format:
\nSuyanggae site in central Korea is one of the most important sites for understanding the Upper Palaeolithic in northeastern Asia. Many international scientific discussions of this site are in progress, especially about the development of the microlithic culture at the site and its vicinity, including Japan, Siberia, and China. A series of annual scientific meetings focused on this site was begun in 1996, titled “SUYANGGAE and Her Neighbors,” and the 20th anniversary of its first excavation will be celebrated this year. This session will contain multidisciplinary presentations concerning the site’s Quaternary geological setting, palaeoenvironment, zooarchaeology, and lithics, as well as complementary studies from adjacent regions.<\/p>\n

\nHuman history clearly shows the tight connection between cultural developments and the availability of water. This connectivity is evident in the history of the southwest with its arid environment and changing environment.<\/p>\n
This gathering of scholars will examine the connection of Native American communities to water and water resources in the past and in the present. The shifting patterns of land occupation and use can often relate to the changing patterns of water and access to water. This delicate balance of land use, occupation, and access to water is found in both the archaeological past and in the current discussions and disputes of land and water in the Rio Grande Valley. Inherent to this discussion is an understanding of the modern Native American perception of water, water use, and land control in today’s world.

\nThis session will canvass some of the most recent developments in African archaeology. From current ethnoarchaeological perspectives, to cultural heritage management projects, palaeoecological studies and museum research, African archaeology has many contributions to make to the international arena. At the heart of many of these projects is the desire to make archaeology socially relevant and to find innovative ways in which it can be applied practically to make it relevant to rural development and Indigenous peoples.
