Encyclopedia of Ancient Asian Civilization is a new and exciting addition to Facts On File's series of encyclopedias of ancient history. It covers ancient Asia from the Jomon culture in Japan in approximately 11,000 BCE through the Cambodian empires of Funan, Chenla, and Angkor that lasted until the 15th century. In many cases - for example the states of Champa in present-day Vietnam which are only described in French and Vietnamese texts and the Dvaravati state of central. Thailand which is best covered in the Thai language - the civilizations covered have thus far been treated only marginally in English literature. Written by one of the preeminent experts in the field, this encyclopedia is the ideal resource for high school and college students researching the subject as well as a useful scholarly reference. Each of the 11, area-specific sections begins with an outline of the region's ancient history, followed by A-to-Z entries that cover archaeological sites; agricultural and economic development; personalities and political institutions; as well as articles on religion, trade, warfare, and other important topics. The eleven sections are: 1. The Civilization of China; 2. The Indus Civilization; 3. The Civilizations of India; 4. The Civilizations of Sri Lanka; 5. The Civilizations of Burma; 6. Thailand: the Civilization of Dvaravati; 7. Cambodia: Funan, Chenla, and Angkor; 8. Champa, Vietnam; 9. The Maritime states of island Southeast Asia; 10. The Civilization of Korea; 11. The Civilization of Japan
