Dvaravati Kingdom To understand of the amazing wealth and character of Thailand's cultural heritage, you must begin with the influence of ancient India. This first entered Southeast Asia perhaps 2,300 years ago. It continued for several centuries as Indian merchants and scholars settled in the region. It is easy to see how important this influence is to modern Thailand. Buddhist religion and popular myth are the most obvious examples. Much of Thailand's royal tradition is also rooted in Indian culture. The present dynasty, of which his Majesty King Bhumibol is the ninth monarch , is known formally as the House of Chakri. While this title comes directly from the name of the founding monarch before he became king, the word chakra actually means the discuss of Hindu mythology. It provides a clear link to Hindu beliefs.

An incredible mass of dazzling pagodas grew up around Angkor Thom, culminating in the glory of the magnificent temple complex at Angkor Wat. With the fall of the Khmers, the temples were slowly recaptured by the lush forest and remained a hidden legend until 1861 when they were re-discovered and introduced to the western world.

Ancient Site Yields Treasures for Penn Prof By Libby Rosof The lowly graduate student's first job for the Ban Chiang Project was to clean the windows, then the room, the shelves, then the tools stored at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology . Then she had to label the stone tools and each little flake of stone from the dig at Ban Chiang. "I was in heaven," says Joyce White. "It was real archaeology!" Today, Dr. Joyce C. White, 44, is the director of the Ban Chiang Project, an international effort and arguably the most important archaeological dig in Southeast Asia. Like many archaeology projects, hers gets along on a shoestring. But the shoestring existence has never clouded White's understanding of the importance of her project. Indeed, the need to publish the findings and to extend the research have become a passion, a white-hot certainty that the knowledge Ban Chiang represents deserves better treatment. Joyce White sits among reconstructed pots unearthed at Ban Chiang site. So she imagines finer thingsa better way to spread our knowledge of history of civilizations. It is a vision for the future of archaeology, and how it must be conducted, with international and professional cooperation and innovative fund raising.

92. In The Shadow Of Angkor From the catalogue essay The Religions of ancient Cambodia by Kamaleswar BoW (Buddhism on the Web) from thailand (now apparently moved, or missing) http://www.ovationtv.com/artszone/teachers/angkor.html

Welcome to 'In The Shadow of Angkor' Summary: Our web presentation of In The Shadow of Angkor emphasizes: the continuity of Cambodian history from the days of Cambodia's powerful, empire-building kings up to today the connections between art and spirituality, and the challenges of understanding the art of another culture and time Web Highlights: It is possible that many students know little or nothing about Cambodia. Most Americans showed little interest in the country before it became strategically important during the Vietnam War. But many of us were horrified by the revelations of what has since been termed "genocide" under the Khmer Rouge regime of Pol Pot. Those students who read a daily newspaper will have been exposed to frequent stories since the summer (1997) of the political turmoil in the country, and the trial of Pol Pot.

Chronology The Khmer or Angkor Civilization came into existence during the period from 802 to 1431 A.D. and stretched as far as the modern Thailand-Burma Border in the West and Wat Phou of Laos in the North during its peak. Its emergence lies in the fact that the ancient Khmer rulers adopted a right political doctrine of its time, which enforce the unity among people. Moreover, they had developed an intelligent irrigation system to control the water of the great Mekong River for agricultures, which enhanced its prosperity. The Khmer Civilization had long been perished over 5 centuries ago, but it left outstanding monuments such as the great Khmer temples of Angkor Wat and Bayon and numerous unique sculptures like Apsara.

In the exhibition, which opened at the Hong Kong Heritage Museum last week, stately stone Buddhas commingle with Greek gods and goddesses, an Iranian prince, and a bare-chested warrior with a rosy complexion and deep blue eyes. A dragon-edged jade disk vies for attention against vases of swirling Roman glass, Byzantine gold coins and a curious flock of tiny wooden geese that could almost pass for miniatures of the sculptures of Henry Moore. If not for the captions to remind us where the motley 300 objects on display were unearthed, it might be easy to forget that the subject of the show is China. First up are a few striking examples of that ancient civilization. Much of the first gallery is dominated by a cavalcade of miniature bronze chariots and horsemen. Painstakingly detailed, with detachable saddles on the horses and mobile wheels on the chariots, they give a sense of the authority of Han rulers at their height at the beginning of the 3rd century. Also of interest from this period are pieces of carved jade, examples of an exacting art form that reached its apogee in the Han era. Jade carving was largely abandoned in the period that followed.

Going to the hospital on your holiday is for most people something close to a worst case scenario in your wildest nightmares but have you been thinking of this? It might save a lot of money for you, maybe in some cases even "pay" for your entire holiday. The cost for example for dental work here in Thailand is much cheaper than in most western countries and also compared to Malaysia and Singapore. Many persons are doing tattoos on their holiday but we can offer you something totally different. Fix your teeth, laser whitening gives you a bright white smile and why not remove those bags under your eyes and return back home rejuvenated. If you have not had a full medical health check-up why not go for it on a rainy day instead of visiting a gold shop.

THE GLOBAL AFRICAN COMMUNITY T R A V E L N O T E S Sunrise at Angkor Wat, Cambodia IN SEARCH OF THE BLACK PRESENCE IN CAMBODIA By RUNOKO RASHIDI DEDICATED TO THE GODFREY FAMILY I n regards to travel and lectures, 1999 was my most productive year to date. Internationally, in 1999, I lectured in Thailand, Hawaii, India, Russia, Trinidad, Venezuela and Guyana. The Ancestors were very good to me. It was wonderful set of experiences, and I frequently felt that I was in a kind of dream. All of this travel revolved around researching the African presence globally. All of my lectures were about who African people are, where we are, what we have done, and what we are doing. All along I felt that I was a sort of ambassador possessed of a strong sense of mission and purpose. THE BLACK PRESENCE IN CAMBODIA My last travel experience in 1999 took me to Thailand and Cambodia. In fact, Cambodia was the only country that I traveled to in 1999 where I didn't lecture. I went to Cambodia solely for research. My interest in the Cambodian kingdom of Angkor began in the mid-1970s when I came across John G. Jackson's powerful and informative volume
