dc.description.abstract | A collection of 362 ceramic spindle whorls purchased in Cambodia has been donated to University of Oregon’s Anthropology Department. These artifacts likely date to between 500 BCE and 500 CE and are thought to have been looted from the site of Angkor Borei, although it is possible that other neighboring sites are represented as well. Few studies have been conducted on spindle whorls from Southeast Asia. As such, this project focused on conducting a preliminary analysis of this collection by categorizing, weighing, and measuring them. In this poster, I present my findings and a preliminary typology including four distinct types. Two of these types have each had multiple subtypes identified. | en_US |
