This comprehensive history provides a fresh interpretation of
Southeast Asia from 100 to 1500, when major social and economic
developments foundational to modern societies took place on the
mainland (Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam) and the island
world (Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines). Kenneth R. Hall
explores this dynamic era in detail, which was notable for growing
external contacts, internal adaptations of nearby cultures, and
progressions from hunter-gatherer and agricultural communities to
inclusive hierarchical states. In the process, formerly local
civilizations became major participants in period's international
trade networks. Incorporating the latest archeological evidence and
international scholarship, Kenneth Hall enlarges upon prior
histories of early Southeast Asia that did not venture beyond 1400,
extending the study of the region to the Portuguese seizure of
Melaka in 1511. Written for a wide audience of non-specialists, the
book will be essential reading for all those interested in Asian
and world history.
