• This week: a human-faced megalith spotted in Lore Lindu—right in an illegal gold-mining zone—and Korea & Vietnam’s first joint underwater survey in Quảng Ngãi, chasing shipwrecks + Chinese ceramics across old sea lanes

  • This week on Southeast Asian Archaeology: rare bronze Mahoratuek drums surface in Thailand, gold-glazed terracotta helps redraw Vietnam’s Ho Citadel, and Aceh War “loot” gets a long-overdue digital reckoning.⠀

  • Circuits, Ceramics, and Colonial Archives is out now 🏛️🌊📜 CNY/Tết (Year of the Horse) greetings + this week’s theme: heritage in a hurry—Angkor’s “high risk” Baksei Chamkrong, Sibonga church repairs post-Odette, and Indonesia’s 152-site revitalisation push. Read: https://bit.ly/3Mswq7G
  • Heritage isn’t just awe—it’s upkeep. This week: a historic building floor collapse at Siak Palace, Beng Mealea’s walkway repairs, Ponagar Tower’s arts show paused over losses.⠀

  • Biases, Bones & Burāq — this week’s Southeast Asian Archaeology newsletter is all about how small corrections can change big histories.⠀
⠀
We’ve got four fresh research reads:⠀
 🐟 Neolithic expansion that looks a lot more “rice and fish” once recovery bias is taken seriously⠀
 📜 An illuminated Qur’an section from Java on dluwang (treebark paper), with clues that push it earlier than you might expect⠀
 🐀 Timor-Leste’s giant/large murids, measured in detail to track changing ecologies (and a late crash)⠀
 ⚱️ Ban Non Wat grave size and offerings, mapping a sharp spike—and then easing—of social distinction⠀
⠀
And for a screen break: a small mention of PBS’s Angkor: Hidden Jungle Empire.⠀

  • This week in Southeast Asian Archaeology: Sulawesi just delivered a headline-grabbing ~67,800-year-old hand-stencil date, Huế’s Imperial Citadel restoration has revealed a trilingual astronomical mural, and Malaysia’s new Guar Kepah Archaeological Gallery opens with the “Penang Woman” at centre stage. Deep time, dynastic science, and fresh public heritage spaces—come catch up on the week’s stories.⠀

  • New week, new reads: a “Southwestern Silk Road” model for amber into Han China, the biggest Austroasiatic genomic dataset yet (with Dvaravati/Angkor-era signals), plus rock art methods and fresh motifs from Malaysia and Laos. Molecules, motifs, and migration stories — all in one roundup.

  • New year, new (very full) newsletter From Java Man coming home to Jakarta to Khmer sculptures heading back to Cambodia and a bleak month on the Thai–Cambodian border, catch up on a whole month of Southeast Asian archaeology: https://bit.ly/4syuWJh
  • This week’s Southeast Asian Archaeology newsletter is all about the invisible infrastructure of knowledge — the stuff behind the sites. We look at Cambodia’s push to access the late Emma Bunker’s notebooks as a potential roadmap to looted Khmer art, a Thanh Hóa village communal house where 47 imperial edicts were quietly stashed in bamboo tubes for centuries, and Jingdezhen’s “ceramic gene bank” in China, where millions of sherds and glaze recipes are treated like DNA for porcelain. From roof beams to databases, it’s a reminder that archives, records and lab data shape what we think we know about the past just as much as temples and shipwrecks do. Plus the usual mix of regional news, grants, jobs and heritage politics — link in bio/newsletter below.

  • Genomes point to a 60,000-year “long chronology” for the first settlers of Sahul, while new DNA links China’s hanging coffins to the modern Bo people. #southeastasianarchaeology

The Cambodia Daily article states the rules as new, but in reality they have been long-standing rules which state that commercial photography in Angkor must require a permit.

Government Imposes New Rules for Photos in Angkor Park
Cambodia Daily, 02 December 2015

Camera-wielding visitors to the iconic temples of the Angkor Archaeological Park in Siem Reap province will have to take extra care before clicking away now that the government has imposed new rules—effective immediately—for anyone aiming to make money off of their images.

As of December 1, all company representatives and journalists who want to take photographs inside the sprawling park, as well as tourists planning to profit from their photos or videos, must secure advance permission by filling out an application at the headquarters of the Apsara Authority, the government body that manages the World Heritage Site.
