  • 1) Bangles from Burial 49, Ban Chiang early-middle period. 2) Bent spear tip from Burial 76. 3) The latest volumes from White and Hamilton on the archaeology of Ban Chiang, a significant Unesco World Heritage Site in Thailand. I’m looking for reviewers for the SPAFA Journal @seameospafa (ideally a Thai and/or a professional archaeologist) if you’re interested, send me a PM. #banchiang #thailand #bronzeage #udonthani #book #upenn #booksforeview #thaiarchaeology #southeastasianarchaeology #prehistory #neolithic #thaihistory #บ้านเชียง #unescoworldheritage
  • Entry to Wat Chedi Luang is not much, 40 baht for adults or $US1.30 - but when we entered there was nobody at the booth and the groundskeeper told us to go right in - the lack of tourists meant the inability to pay for ticketing staff. Heritage sites dependent on tourism are taking a beating, like the rest of the industry. We left a small donation to the temple, and at every temple we visited, to help for its upkeep. #covid19 #heritagetourism #archaeotourism #chiangmai #thailand #watchediluang

  • Check out my story for the Night at the Museum event at the Bangkok National Museum - in conjunction with Thai Museums Day on September 19. The museum hosted a tea party with musical and dance performances, followed by guided tours at the galleries. It was a good opportunity to catch the new exhibition ‘San Somdet’ - an exploration of Thai history, archaeology and culture through the correspondence of two princes. #bangkok #thailand #nationalmuseum #nationalmuseumbangkok #nightatthemuseum #sansomdet #thaimuseumday #thaihistory #thaiarchaeology #southeastasianarchaeology
  • In Chiangmai yesterday and today and most of my trip was concentrated in the old city of Chiangmai. Wat Chedi Luang, located close to the centre of the city, is easily the largest stupa in the area despite it incomplete state. Built at the end of the 14th century and damaged by earthquake in the 15th century, the chedi once housed the Emerald Buddha that had previously resided in Luang Prabang and is now in Bangkok. H/T to @pathsunwritten for his guides to Chiangmai. The history and archaeology of northern Thailand is unfamiliar to me, what else should I visit, during my next trip to Chiangmai?

  • Chedi Chiang Lom, the oldest building in Wat Chiang Man วัดเชียงมั่น, itself the oldest temple in the old city of Chiangmai. The temple was built in 1297, while King Mengrai was building his new city of Chiangmai. The Chedi is similar to Wat Chang Lom in Sukhothai. #วัดเชียงมั่น #chiangmai #chedi #stupa #elephant #thailand #thaiarchaeology #southeastasianarchaeology #lanna #buddhism #oldcity #ancientarchitecture

Henri Marchal Book. EFEO.

Henri Marchal Book. EFEO.

via EFEO: Readers may be interested in this new book (in French) celebrating the life and work of Henri Marchal, the architect who devoted his life Angkor.

Arrivé en Indochine en 1904, Henri Marchal, architecte formé aux Beaux-Arts, a consacré sa vie à la découverte et la restauration des temples d’Angkor au Cambodge. Et c’est à Angkor qu’il s’est éteint en 1970, à la veille de l’arrivée des Khmers rouges. Lorsqu’il prend sa retraite officielle en 1939, Henri Marchal et sa femme Mary décident de profiter des escales du bateau qui les ramène en France pour découvrir la Thaïlande, la Birmanie, l’Inde, Ceylan, l’Égypte, la Grèce… Après six mois de pérégrination, ils arrivent à Marseille au début de la Seconde Guerre mondiale qu’ils passeront dans la maison familiale de Meudon-Bellevue, où Mary décèdera en 1944. L’Asie lui manque, et dès 1947, il est de retour à Angkor où l’École française d’Extrême-Orient le rappelle : l’effondrement d’une galerie du célèbre temple d’Angkor Vat constitue une urgence majeure, et les architectes disponibles sont rares dans une France en pleine reconstruction. Malgré la situation politique troublée au Cambodge et ses 71 ans, Henri Marchal accueille cette proposition avec enthousiasme. « Je fus ravi d’avoir l’occasion de m’occuper des vieilles pierres dont, pendant si longtemps, j’avais eu la responsabilité. » Son retour au Cambodge l’enchante, il décidera d’ailleurs de ne plus quitter son pays d’adoption et d’y finir sa vie auprès de sa famille khmère
