National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage hosts

2022 Asian Archaeology

- Archaeology of Southeast Asia, Friday, Oct. 28th, 10:00 a.m.

 (On- and offline) -


The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage (Kim Yeonsoo, Director General; hereafter NRICH) of the Cultural Heritage Administration will host the International Symposium 2022 Asian Archaeology at the KW Convention Center in Daejeon on October 28th, 2022. 

 

  Asian Archaeology is a series of symposia, which NRICH has been hosting annually since 2011, focusing mainly on archaeological outcomes from Eurasia and Northeast Asia. This year, however, researchers from Korea and abroad, taking active parts in Southeast Asian Archaeology, a somewhat overlooked topic in Korea, will discuss representative Ancient Southeast Asian sites and archaeological outcomes, either at the venue or online.

 

  The first session will cover topics on maritime exchanges between Eurasia and Southeast Asia: ▲ Maritime Routes and Civilization Exchanges of Eurasia (Kang Heejung, Sogang University), ▲ Consumer Preferences and Cosmopolei in 14th- Century Southeast Asia (John N. Miksic, National University of Singapore/Nanyang Technological University), ▲ The Circulation of Stone and Glass beads in Ancient Southeast Asia (Alison Carter, University of Oregon).

 

  The second session will continue with presentations on indicative studies about the ancient cultures in Southeast Asia: ▲ The archeological research achievements of OcEo culture in An Giang province in the period 2017-2022 (Nguyen HuuGieng, The Management Board of OcEo cultural sites in An Giang province, Vietnam), ▲ Major Explorations and Research Results of Archaeology in Thailand (Amara Srisuchat, The Fine Arts Department, Thailand), ▲ Archaeological Research in Indonesia: Current Context (Marlon Ririmasse, Research Center for Environmental Archaeology, Maritime Archaeology, and Sustainable CultureNational Research and Innovation Agency the Republic of Indonesia).

 

  Future strategies for joint research projects between Korea and Southeast Asian countries will be examined during the third session: ▲ Ethnographic Research and Future Strategies for Southeast Asian Studies for Restoration of Ancient Pottery Production Methods (Jeon Yongho·NamSangwon·LeeHyewon, NRICH), ▲ Recent Results on the Research and Reconstruction Project of the Western Prasat Top, Angkor (Yuni Sato, Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties), ▲ Pursuing New Directions of Southeast Asian Cultural Heritage ODA Project (BaekKyunghwan, Korea Cultural Heritage Foundation), ▲ ASPCS and OTTP systems for restoration of Southeast Asian cultural heritage and future tasks (Lee Jaesung, NRICH).

 

   Prof. Kang Heejung will chair the discussion between Korean researchers to develop new approaches to studying ancient cultures in Southeast Asia. The symposium is expected to enable the participants to exchange their opinions freely, so it can serve as an opportunity to discover new research outlooks between Southeast Asian countries, Korea, and Eurasian countries, where there were not many exchanges thus far. Anyone who wishes to attend can register on the site (KW Convention Center, Daejeon) as of 10:00 a.m. or join the live stream from the NRICH channel on YouTube. The proceedings can be downloaded from the NRICH website.

This event is hoped to bring a beacon to explore some investigation and research results of Southeast Asian Archaeology and enable joint excavations and research.

The NRICH of the Cultural Heritage Administration, as the central research institute in the field of archaeology in and outside of the country, will continue to strive to lead international archaeological research and share the results.
