  • Vietnamese Ceramics in Asian Maritime Trade Between 14Th and 17Th Centuries
    Vietnamese Ceramics in Asian Maritime Trade between 14th and 17th centuries Ngo The Bach Department of Research and Collections Thang Long - Hanoi Heritage Conservation Centre 19, Hoang Dieu St Hanoi Vietnam Email: [email protected] Abstract Vietnam is one of many Asian countries that have a long-standing and famous tradition of pottery production. Vietnam is also one of three countries including China, Vietnam, and Japan which exported ceramics developed to other countries. The 14th century was marked by the initial penetration of Vietnamese ceramics for foreign markets. The 15th century was considered as a prosperous period for Vietnamese export ceramics with the largest export quantity and the most abundant types thereof. The 16th century marked as a pause in the export of Vietnamese ceramics. The 17th century was the development period of commodity economy and the renaissance period of ports located in the northern and central parts of Vietnam. The article reviewed the findings regarding Vietnamese ceramics in Japan, West Asia, mainland, and insular Southeast Asia in order to partially reconstruct the historical context and the flow of Vietnamese export ceramics for the international maritime trade routes in the Vietnamese history of international trades from 14th to 17th centuries. Given that, the author pointed out the origin, chronology of the Vietnamese ceramics discovered from the relics as well as market context thereof and the destinations of Vietnamese export ceramics. Key words: Vietnamese ceramics, Dai Viet (Great Viet), Northern Vietnam, Southeast Asia, Maritime trade routes, Ceramic export Introduction Vietnam is located in Southeast Asia or Indo-China, with more than 3,000 km of long and beautiful coastline, and is at a crossroads of the exchange routes of the East to the West.

  • Sawankhalok' a Problem in History and Historiography1 Journal of the Siam Society, Vol
    1 The Old City of 'Chaliang'--'Srī Satchanalai'--'Sawankhalok' a Problem in History and Historiography1 Journal of the Siam Society, Vol. 78, Part 2 (1990), pp. 15-29. The old city which is under discussion here is that located about 50 km north of Sukhothai on the west side of the Yom river, and 14 km south of the Amphoe administrative center officially named Srī Satchanalai, but locally known as Hat Siaw.2 Just 2-7 km north of the old city extend the ancient ceramic kiln fields of Pa Yang and Ban Koh Noi which have received much archaeological attention in recent years, and which must have constituted a major economic activity for several centuries, although they are unmentioned in any legendary or historical sources.3 This old city and the names which have been attributed to it have come under new attention as a result of archaeological study of the kilns and their wares, the transformation of the area into a 'historical park' at the hand of the Fine Arts De- partment, and the new Rām Khamhaeng controversy which involves both Sukhothai and Sri Satchanalai.4 Because some of the material to be examined, and conclusions reached, impinge on problems of the history of the Kingdom of Sukhothai in a wider sense and on the status of the Rām Khamhaeng inscription, and because another historian has recently discussed some of this material in connection with that inscription, I hasten to state at the outset that those issues are not what is of primary concern here.5 This paper was conceived as part of a historical 1 Research for this paper and writing of a first draft was done while I was attached to the Centre for Asian Studies, University of Adelaide, working for the Thai Ceramics Archaeological Project and the Research Centre for Southeast Asian Ceramics, and supported by a grant from the Australian Research Grants Scheme.

  • Turiang: a 14Th Century Chinese Shipwreck, Upsetting Southeast Asian Ceramic History
    This article was first published in “Southeast Asia – China Interactions” which was published by the Malaysian Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society in 2002. Articles selected by Dr. Geoff Wade with foreword by Wang Gunawu. Turiang: a 14th century Chinese shipwreck, upsetting Southeast Asian ceramic history By Sten Sjostrand Edited: Dr. Geoff Wade Photographs, sketches, maps and images: Sten Sjostrand Introduction The Turiang is one of several 14-16th century wrecks discovered in the South China Sea by Sten Sjostrand. All carried ceramics and offer new insights into this glorious period of maritime trade in Southeast Asia, and in particular into the history of Thai ceramics. The Turiang was a Chinese ship with a multinational cargo of Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese ceramics, apparently heading for Borneo and/or Sulawesi. The wreck is tentatively dated to AD 1305-1370. This is one of the earliest shipwrecks yet discovered with Thai export ceramics. The find prompts a reassessment of the relative importance of the two major production centres at Sukhothai and Si-Satchanalai. It also proves that almost-identical black underglaze ware was available simultaneously from Sukhothai and Vietnam. Turiang's ceramic significance The Turiang cargo suggests that: Decorated underglaze ware from Thailand and Vietnam was popular before Chinese blue-and-white Longquan celadon’s made in China were fired on tubular supports, identical to those later used at Si-Satchanalai Sukhothai was in production earlier than previously thought Sukhothai was not always a

This article introduces some findings from recent archaeological excavations undertaken at three Champa citadels: the Hoa Chau Citadel, the Tra Kieu Citadel in Quang Nam Province, and the Cha Ban Citadel in Binh Dinh Province. Combined with historical material and field surveys, the paper describes the scope and structure of the ancient citadels of Champa, and it explores the position, role, and function of these citadels in the context of their own nagaras (small kingdoms) and of mandala Champa as a whole. Through comparative analysis, an attempt is made to identify features characteristic of ancient Champa citadels in general. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2�17 | doi 10.1163/22879811-12340006Downloaded from Brill.com10/09/2021 06:28:08AM via free access Champa Citadels 71 Keywords Cha Ban – Champa – citadel – Hoa Chau – Thanh Cha – Thanh Ho – Thanh Loi – Tra Kieu Tra Kieu Citadel in Quang Nam Among the ancient citadels of Champa located in central Vietnam, the Tra Kieu site in Quang Nam has generally been identified as the early capital, and thus has attracted the interest of many scholars.

  • (Khmer Ceramics (Singapore, Oxford
    Khmer Ceramics 2 From the dust jacket: Amongst the wealth of ceramic ware from South-East Asia, the ceramics of the Khmer empire of Angkor are probably the least well- known, just as this aspect of the art and culture of that great civilization is also the least explored. In this important contribution to the growing body of literature on the ceramics of the region, the author presents the first comprehensive study of Khmer ceramics to be published. The study examines the background, influences, characteristics, shapes and uses of this branch of the ceramic industry and provides the reader with a composite picture of the Khmer contribution to the craft. The volume is lavishly illustrated with twenty-five colour plates and more than one hundred black and white pictures and drawings of examples of Khmer ware, providing examples many of which are in private collections and therefore not accessible to the general public. Dr. Dawn Rooney is an art historian and presently lives and works in Bangkok. Jacket illustrations: Front Pot; diam. 6 cm; first half i2th century; brown monochrome.
