Abstract

This panel will present results of recent research in archaeology. It is also to demonstrate how studying ancient culture can contribute to modern society. Archaeologists try to understand cultural complexity and attempt to reconstruct culture chronology of the past society. Archaeological aspects such as population movement, cultural diversity, beliefs and rituals have long engaged researchers around the world to explore and experiment new methodology in order to solve their puzzling finds. Development of science technology has significantly broadened our knowledge. It is hoped that this panel will bring together researchers to share their new methods and exciting results and to project research prospect.
