Sea-level Changes and Its Problematics on Studying Dvaravati Culture
Dr Trongjai Hutangkura
Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Anthropology Centre
Major cities of the Dvaravati culture (6th-10th centuries) had been believed to be port towns on the Lower Central Plain of Thailand. However, a number of recent studies show that the palaeo-shoreline that reached these cities belong to the early phase of the Holocene Maximum Transgression, around 7000 years earlier. Therefore, how do we find the approximate locations of the palaeo-shoreline relating to the Dvaravati?
