via Bangkok Post, 10 March 2022: Publicity piece for the upcoming IPPA Congress focusing on the Office of Archaeology at the Fine Arts Department.
“The work of archaeology starts with hypothesis and assumption and research prevails. Expectations can both be threats to our career and inspiration. Many give up after several unsuccessful attempts. Those who remain are bound to uncover new chapters of cultural history together with their circle of peers who contribute their knowledge, experience and advice.”
In keeping the curiosity and history alive, the Office of Archaeology Director and his archaeologist fellows continue to learn and gain new knowledge and relevant science through research, books, technologies and like-mind scholars.
“In early November, one of the world’s largest archaeology events, the 22nd Indo-Pacific Prehistory Association, or IPPA, will be hosted for the second time in Chiang Mai. At the congress, archaeologists from around the world will share their findings, methodologies and ideas. We will find new practices and suggestions to improve our existing works and probably new connections and theories.”
