Early Pottery in South China TRACEY L-D LU introduction In this paper, ‘‘early pottery’’ is defined as ceramics dated to approximately 10,000 years ago or earlier, which have been discovered from the Japanese Archi- pelago, the Russian Far East, the Yellow and the Yangzi River Valleys, to South China (Tables 1 and 2). Pottery discovered in the Japanese Archipelago are dated to between 15,000 and 12,000 years ago (Tsutsumi 2000), or even up to 17,200 b.p. (Kuzmin 2006); those found in the Russian Far East are dated between 13,300 and 12,300 years ago, or 16,500–14,100 b.p. (Kuzmin 2006; Zhushchi- khovskaya 1997). Potsherds found in North China are dated to between 12,000 and 10,000 years ago (Guo and Li 2000; Zhao et al. 2003), those found in the Yangzi River Valley are dated probably up to 18,000 years ago (Boaretto et al. 2009), and pottery found in South China is dated to approximately 12,000 years ago (Institute of Archaeology CASS et al. 2003). It seems that pottery was manu- factured by di¤erent groups in di¤erent natural and cultural contexts at the end of the Pleistocene or the beginning of the Holocene1 in various places of East Asia, although it is not clear whether pottery was invented in one center or in multi- centers. There are many hypotheses on the origin of pottery, including the ‘‘architec- tural hypothesis,’’ the ‘‘culinary hypothesis,’’ which proposes that pottery was invented for cooking cereals and/or shells, the ‘‘resources intensification’’ hypoth- esis, and the ‘‘social/symbolic elaboration’’ theory (Rice 1999:5–14). -

The Archaeobotany of Khao Sam Kaeo and Phu Khao Thong: the Agriculture of Late Prehistoric Southern Thailand (Volume 1)
The Archaeobotany of Khao Sam Kaeo and Phu Khao Thong: The Agriculture of Late Prehistoric Southern Thailand (Volume 1) Cristina Castillo Institute of Archaeology University College London Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of University College London 2013 Declaration I hereby declare that this dissertation consists of original work undertaken by the undersigned. Where other sources of information have been used, they have been acknowledged. Cristina Castillo October 2013 Institute of Archaeology, UCL 2 Abstract The Thai-Malay Peninsula lies at the heart of Southeast Asia. Geographically, the narrowest point is forty kilometres and forms a barrier against straightforward navigation from the Indian Ocean to the South China Sea and vice versa. This would have either led vessels to cabotage the southernmost part of the peninsula or portage across the peninsula to avoid circumnavigating. The peninsula made easy crossing points strategic locations commercially and politically. Early movements of people along exchange routes would have required areas for rest, ports, repair of boats and replenishment of goods. These feeder stations may have grown to become entrepôts and urban centres. This study investigates the archaeobotany of two sites in the Thai-Malay Peninsula, Khao Sam Kaeo and Phu Khao Thong. Khao Sam Kaeo is located on the east whereas Phu Khao Thong lies on the west of the peninsula and both date to the Late Prehistoric period (ca. 400-100 BC). Khao Sam Kaeo has been identified as the earliest urban site from the Late Prehistoric period in Southeast Asia engaged in trans-Asiatic exchange networks. -

PREHISTORIC ADMINISTRATIVE TECHNOLOGIES and the ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN REDISTRIBUTION ECONOMY the Case of Greater Susiana
Gian Pietro Basello - L'Orientale University of Naples - 25/01/2018 CHAPTER EIGHTEEN PREHISTORIC ADMINISTRATIVE TECHNOLOGIES AND THE ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN REDISTRIBUTION ECONOMY The case of greater Susiana Denise Schmandt- Besserat INTRODUCTION Ancient Near Eastern art of the 4th and 3rd millennium BC gloriies the temple redistribution economy. Mesopotamians are depicted proudly delivering vessels illed with goods at the temple gate (Leick 2002: 52–53; Nissen and Heine 2003: 30–31, Figure 20) (Figure 18.1 A), and Elamites celebrate their huge communal granaries (Amiet 1972b: Pl. 16:660, 662–663; Legrain 1921: Pl. 14: 222) (Figs. 18.1 B-E). What the monuments do not show is the judicious administration which managed the temple’s and community’s wealth. Nor do they tell when, how and why the redis- tribution system was created. In this chapter we analyze what the prehistoric administrative technologies such as tokens and seals may disclose on the origin and evolution of the exemplary redistri- bution economy (Schmandt- Besserat 1992a: 172–183; Pollock 1999: 79–80, 92–96) which developed in antiquity in the land that was to become Elam (Vallat 1980: 2; 1993: CIV). 8TH MILLENNIUM BC – INITIAL VILLAGE PERIOD1 – THE FIRST TOKENS The earliest human presence in the Susiana and Deh Luran plains – Greater Susiana (Moghaddam 2012a: 516) – was identiied in level A of the site of Chogha Bonut, ca. 7200 BC. The evidence suggests the seasonal encampment of a small band who lived from farming as well as hunting (Alizadeh 2003:40). Among the scanty remains they left behind were ire pits dug into living loors and a scattering of artifacts, including lint and obsidian tools, rocks smeared with ochre, clay igurines and tokens (Aliza- deh 2003: 35). -
