Ban Chiang introduction
Ban Chiang wares, from the north-east of Thailand or Esarn, were first studied in 1966. great interest was aroused since bronze manufacture was associated with the ceramics which were dated to some 4,000 B.C. making this one of the earliest known bronze sites. Excavations seem to show that a peaceful civilization existed in the area for some 4,000 years.
Pots from the early periods were mostly undecorated while the later ones were decorated with spectacular fingerprint designs. |
