There’s a new web forum online dedicated to the archaeology and history of Asia. It was started by Ondine Martinez, who announced it over at the SEAArch Facebook page.

Asian Archaeology and History Forum

The party’s only just started, so pay a visit and see what else pops up on the forum. It’s a great place to share, discuss and announce news and information about Asian archaeology and history.

Sukhothai Online

March 31st, 2008 noelbynature Posted in Thailand, UNESCO World Heritage, Websites No Comments »

I’m currently in Thailand now, looking up some research for my thesis and with any luck I’ll be the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ayutthaya today. On that related note, the other ancient Thai capital (considered the “first” Thai capital in fact) Sukhothai is the subject of a newly launched website by UNESCO and the Thai Fine Arts Department.

Khmer Archaeology

February 8th, 2008 noelbynature Posted in Angkor, Cambodia, Websites No Comments »

From the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts of Cambodia comes a new website, CISARK - Carte Interactive des Sites Archeologiques Khmers. It details Khmer archaeological sites, not only in Cambodia, but spanning Thailand, Laos and Vietnam as well.

The site is currently in French, with the Khmer, Japanese and English pages still under construction. But there’s a good links page to other sites related to the archaeology of Khmers and Cambodia. (I’ll incorporate those links on our links page soon, too.)

SEAArch on Asia East and Greg Laden’s blog

January 31st, 2008 noelbynature Posted in Websites No Comments »

If you’re doing a little surfing around this morning, make sure you drop by the Four Stone Hearth Blog Carnival (#33!) at Greg Laden’s blog and also check out the latest issue of Asia East! At both sites, I contributed the recent post about 5 Southeast Asian Archaeology sites to visit (that are not Angkor). Check these two sites out for great articles about anthropology and Asia.
