Cambodians join club of countries seeking repatriation of artefacts

January 11th, 2010 noelbynature Posted in Cambodia, Conferences, Museums 2 Comments »

Cambodia looks set to join a growing list of countries seeking the return of its cultural heritage properties and artefacts housed in museums and private collections in the west. I wonder if other Southeast Asian nations are involved in this conference in Egypt  – I can think of Vietnam and Indonesia who would also be interested in seeking the return of artefacts spirited away during the colonial period. If so, we might expect to see an increase of repatriation requests in SEAArch over the next couple of years.

Hey, that’s us!

November 30th, 2009 noelbynature Posted in Conferences, Vietnam No Comments »

It’s been two days at the 19th Indo-Pacific Prehistory Congress at Hanoi and it’s been a massive gathering with lots of great meet-ups. The opening ceremony yesterday was quite big – I found it quite cool that the former president of Vietnam (Tran Duc Long) is also the president of the Vietnam Association of Archaeology.
