<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Two archaeologists share new research on
Cambodia’s past and efforts to protect and preserve the record of the
past. Mitch Hendrickson explains how production of objects (ceramics, iron),
landscapes (roads and settlements) and identity (both cultural and
archaeological) offers critical new insight into how and why the Khmer Empire
developed, expanded and ultimately collapsed. Dougald O’Reilly describes
how, in response to a crisis of looting at historic and prehistoric sites, the
international non-profit Heritage Watch was founded to slow the destruction. </span></font></p>
