Ancient Glassware in Malaysia: The Pengkalan Collection
---
Daniel Perret & Zulkifli Jaafar (eds)
There is little or no evidence of glassware produced in Southeast Asia prior to the 16th century, yet thousands of glass shards predating this period have been found all over the region. One of the most extensively excavated sites such examples have been unearthed is at Lembah Bujang, in the state of Kedah, Malaysia. The contributors to this book describe several of the items now housed at the Archeological Museum at the site with photographs, technical information and details of the provenance of several pieces indicating direct or indirect contact with the Mediterranean to the East and China to the East. Near Fine Paperback. First Edition with figures, tables, an index and several colour plates and line drawings. 203 pages
