This article is a French translation of the English language original, published in Asian Perspectives in 2009. The original manuscript was written in 2008 but the core ideas stand, governed, as they are, by thermodynamics.
Archaeological excavations at Ban Khao Din Tai archaeological site have revealed a substantial number of iron slags. Studying these iron slags was important because of their archaeological and technological interests. In this study selected five iron slags for the archaeometallurgical studies, energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry was u...
Pigs, the principal sources of meat for humans, have been crucial to cultures throughout Asia, especially in China and SE Asia, since prehistoric times. Several archaeological studies have used pig remains to elucidate the origin, culture, social evolution, and migration patterns of Asiatic people. However, ancient DNA of these remains in central S...
:The existing Southeast Asian archaeological literature commonly presupposes that the region's extensive laterite deposits are rich in iron and have been used as ore sources for the smelting of iron. We summarize what is known about laterite in light of the universal physico-chemical requirements for the bloomery smelting of iron, and suggest that...

... In order to strengthen the knowledge of tour guides related to industrial evidence in this complex, archaeological experiments related to iron manufacturing and smelting technology were applied during the Knowledge Transfer Programme (KTP). These archaeological experiments were conducted with the main purpose of obtaining a initial description of earlier societies through archaeological research as interpreted by Humphris et al. (2018), Chuenpee et al. (2014) and Humphris, (2010). Therefore, the experiment archaeological research is able to record primary data related to smelting technology of the Kedah Tua community and it can be processed and applied in offering a full tourism package "iron smelting demonstration" at the Sungai Batu Archaeological Complex in particular. ...

... Pigs were raised in the backyard for personal consumption during ritual events and occasional ceremonies [2]. Thai indigenous pigs (TIPs) could be descended from both Chinese and local Southeast Asian ancestors, as inferred from ancient pig DNA [3]. TIPs typically have a black coat color, with occasional white markings on the nose, belly, and leg tips. ...

... Since there is a lack of previously available lead isotope data directly obtained from gold objects, our ability to make precise comparisons with background data is limited, and such comparisons will only be loosely extended to the lead materials. To address this, we have gathered lead isotope background data from the discovery sites of the gold and silver beads described above, which encompass regions including Southeast Asia, as well as Guangxi, Guangdong, Hunan, and Henan in China (Pryce et al., 2014;Hsu and Sabatini 2019) (Figs. 7 and 9). It is evident that the raw materials used for the big gold beads (biconical) and the small gold beads (spindle-shaped) originate from distinct sources. ...

... The Santubong, Jeong, and Bongkisan sites in the Sarawak River delta (Sarawak, Malaysia) are dated to around the 10th to 13th centuries (Harrisson and O'Connor, 1969;O'Connor, 1977). The iron smelting site at Ban Kao Din Tai in Thailand (1400-1500 AD) (Pryce and Natapintu, 2010), and the iron smelting site at Saphim (Laos) are dated to around the 8th-9th centuries AD (Pryce et al., 2011). At the Tonle Bak site in Cambodia, the iron industry developed between the 13th and 14th centuries AD (Leroy et al., 2020). ...
