    NO BASIC DESIGN STUDY REPORT ON THE PROJECT OF PREPARATION FOR CONSERVATION OF VAT PHOU ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE IN LAO PEOPLE’S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC DECEMBER 2001 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY KOKUSAI KOGYO CO., LTD. GR2 CR(1) 01-210 Preface In response to a request from the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic, the Government of Japan decided to conduct a basic design study on The Project of Preparation for Conservation of Vat Phou Archaeological Site and entrusted the study to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA sent a study team to Laos from the 4th of June to the 16th of July, 2001. The team held discussions with the officials concerned from the Government of Laos, and conducted a field study at the study area. After the team returned to Japan, further studies were made. Then, a mission was sent to Laos in order to discuss a basic design, and as a result, the present report was finalized. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of the project and to the enhancement of friendly relations between our two countries. I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned from the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic for their close cooperation extended to the teams.

  • The Vat Phou Museum and the Archaeological Collections of Champasak
    Christine Hawixbrock The Vat Phou museum and the archaeological collections of Champasak Christine Hawixbrock* “Le musée de Vat Phu et les collections archéologiques de Champassak”, BEFEO 97-98 (2010-2011), 2013, Paris, EFEO, p. 271-314. The archaeological collections of the museum of Vat Phou come from thirty or so sites in Champasak province, the principal ones being the monumental complex established on the western slope of the Mount Phou Kao and the Ancient riverside City that is thought to be the first capital of the Khmer dynasty of Chenla. The great majority of objects and vestiges conserved belong to the pre-Angkorian (5th c.-8th c.) and Angkorian (9th c.-13th c.) periods. Later Laotian Buddhist artefacts (17th c.-20th c.) make up part of the collections, as well as elements of a princely collection, now national heritage. Enriched with some 1490-catalogued pieces (nearly 400 supplementary objects are to be entered in the inventory), the archaeological collections gathered together at Champasak are not all open to the public. The museum of Vat Phou, opened in 2004, shows a selection of 225 pieces representing various historical periods [fig. 1]. The rest are preserved in an adjacent store as well as in a warehouse in the town of Champasak. Some objects are on view in other museums, especially those of Pakse – provincial capital – and of Vientiane. Over the last thirty years several inventories of Champasak archaeological collections have been attempted. The systematic survey of the pieces began only in 2009 however; it depends upon a computer database specially designed for the project.

  • The Cultural Politics of Lao Literature, 1941-1975
    INVOKING THE PAST: THE CULTURAL POLITICS OF LAO LITERATURE, 1941-1975 A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Chairat Polmuk May 2014 © 2014 Chairat Polmuk ABSTRACT This thesis examines the role of Lao literature in the formation of Lao national identity from 1945 to 1975. In the early 1940s, Lao literary modernity emerged within the specific politico-cultural context of the geopolitical conflict between French Laos and Thailand. As a result, Lao literature and culture became increasingly politicized in colonial cultural policy to counter Thai expansionist nationalism that sought to incorporate Laos into Thai territorial and cultural space. I argue that Lao literature, which was institutionalized by Franco-Lao cultural campaigns between 1941 and 1945, became instrumental to the invention of Lao tradition and served as a way to construct a cultural boundary between Laos and Thailand. Precolonial Lao literature was revitalized as part of Lao national culture; its content and form were also instrumentalized to distinguish Lao identity from that of the Thai. Lao literature was distinguished by the uses of the Lao language, poetic forms, and classical conventions rooted in what was defined as Laos’s own literary culture. In addition, Lao prose fiction, which was made possible in Laos with the rise of print capitalism and an emergent literate social class, offered another mode of “invented tradition.” Despite its presumed novelty in terms of form and content, early Lao prose fiction was highly conventional in its representation of idealized traditional society in opposition to a problematic modern one.

In Champasak, visible ancient remains have long been indicators of the existence of guardian spirits, as well as religious beliefs, legends, and practices. The rites of worshipping the spirits have been demonstrated through staged ceremonial and ritual grandeur. This form of political art has been used to convey spiritual messages to the citizenry; however, such theatrical governmentality has not escaped the influence of scientific modernity. Thus, two phases of heritagization have occurred: French colonialization and the present periods of imposed scientific knowledge and politics that have created heritage sites and objects in the region.

    The Spirit of the Place During the Life of a Monument in the Case Study of World Heritage Site as Vat Phou (Laos) Beatrice Messeri IMT Lucca P.zza San Ponziano 6 Lucca - 55100 - Italy [email protected] Abstract. To this day, Vat Phou site represents a unique example of the social and religious use while being a commercial tourist attraction. This case can be considered a model but one must consider its intrinsic future risks. Main threats and haphazard interventions and financial speculation as many have already occurred at other WHL sites over the time. The goal here is to recommend preventive and comprehensive measures to preserve the very fabric and spirit of the place. Historical introduction Vat Phou is considered one of the most important Khmer sites (IX-XII c. AD) along with the Cambodian ones, which have been inscribed in the World Heritage List since 2001. It is situated in the southern province of Champasak (Laos), a few kilometres from the town of Champasak, 30 kilometres from the province’s capital Pakse, and about 120 Km from Cambodia. The Khmer legend indicates Vat Phou as the birthplace of the Hindu god Shiva, that has been identified as the main sanctuary inside the hearthland of the Chenla1 kingdom (Ishii and Sakurai 1985, 76- 85). The Vat Phou complex is inserted in the Champasak plain’s cultural landscape, flanked by the Phou Kao Mountain to the west and the Mekong River to the east and other sacred sites and temples around. Vat Phou was surrounded by the ancient city of Shrestrapura and the urban settlement of Lingapura (IX-XIII c.

Lao vernacular dwellings were initially created based on the Lao people’s behavior in terms of beliefs, traditional culture, lifestyle, and local wisdom with regard to the environment, climate, geography, and materials. The main research method used in this study is a comparative case study of three ethnic dwellings. The multiple data collection tools employed included second source data and primary data to analyze the findings of the unique characteristic typology of Lao vernacular dwellings. The objective of this paper is to compare the cultural and physical contexts, the patterns and origins of settlement, the architecture,
