Ban Chiang, located in Udon Province in northeastern Thailand, is one of the most important prehistoric archaeological sites in Southeast Asia and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1972. The artifacts unearthed here date from 3600 BC to 1000 BC and reveal a unique Bronze Age civilization, including exquisite painted pottery, bronze tools and ornaments, and sophisticated metallurgical techniques that far surpassed those of the same period in Southeast Asia. The discovery of Ban Chiang rewrote the history of metal use in Southeast Asia and proved the high level of development of the local early society. Nowadays, the Heritage Park and Ban Chiang Museum display to visitors the pottery decoration and bronze casting craftsmanship of a thousand years ago, becoming an important window to explore Thailand's ancient civilization and attracting history enthusiasts and archaeologists.
