Based on publication data from related research results—including journal article, book, book section/conference paper, and thesis—this paper provides a bird’s-eye view of how the field of prehistoric archaeology has developed over the past 20 years and, in particular, the role of local and international scholars. The findings show that Western scholars, who remain active in this field, have had a comprehensive and far-reaching influence on the discipline of prehistoric archaeology in MSEA. Local and international scholars have remarkably contrasting interests in terms of research topics, as local scholars are deeply invested in revealing the intricate threads of their own histories and cultures, while international scholars traverse regional boundaries and engage in macro-level discussion to explore scientific questions. This diversity is also found in their journal selection preferences, with local scholars focusing on local journals and international scholars preferring high-impact international journals. The analysis of institutional cooperation also shows diversified international cooperation and a growing local cooperative practice. This study provides a broad perspective from which to examine the development of research on prehistoric archaeology in MSEA over the last two decades and to deepen our understanding of the state of the field in this region.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44740,"journal":{"name":"Archaeologies-Journal of the World Archaeological Congress","volume":"21 3","pages":"582 - 617"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145537741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These sites represent tangible and intangible cultural heritage that face risks from natural erosion, vandalism, development pressures, and inadequate legal protection. Furthermore, despite their cultural importance, many sites—especially those recently discovered—lack a formal management framework to ensure their preservation for future generations and face numerous challenges due to the absence of a structured management approach. Drawing on decades of research in rock art conservation, this study highlights key factors contributing to the deterioration of these sites, such as environmental degradation, encroachment, and ownership issues. Additionally, borrowing from research from various parts of the world, the paper examines potential strategies for both immediate and long-term preservation of the sites, ensuring a balanced approach to cultural preservation and economic sustainability. It also proposes a holistic management framework that integrates legal protection, community involvement, and conservation science.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44740,"journal":{"name":"Archaeologies-Journal of the World Archaeological Congress","volume":"21 3","pages":"489 - 523"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145537740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the closing stages of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, Denmark felt compelled to establish plantations in Ghana. Frederikssted slave plantation established in 1794 in Dodowa, was one of the earliest Danish slave plantations which was meant to replace the Danish involvement in the trans-Atlantic slave trade in Ghana<b>.</b> Documentary records have described enslaved Africans as the main workforce on Frederikssted plantation. However, the archaeological data did not reveal much information about these enslaved workers. The archaeological data rather show that local elite family reoccupied the Frederikssted plantation site after it collapsed in 1802. This family created wealth and used expensive material goods to denote their social position. This article, therefore, challenges the current research agenda, which view slave plantation sites as places mainly occupied by the plantation owners and their enslaved workers. The article posits that plantation archaeologists should, therefore, consider this third group of occupants distinctively and that their material culture should not be confused with that of planters and their slaves. The excavations and the resultant material culture reveal that Frederikssted plantation site represents different episodes of occupation, abandonment, and reoccupation. The indigenous elites who reoccupied the plantation site have played a crucial role in shaping the plantation landscape, which provides a new way to understand plantation archaeology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44740,"journal":{"name":"Archaeologies-Journal of the World Archaeological Congress","volume":"21 3","pages":"524 - 564"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145537742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This phenomenon is fueled by a complex interplay of factors, including entrenched poverty, the growing demand for looted artifacts in Israeli and global antiquities markets, ongoing political instability, and a limited public understanding within Palestinian society of the socio-political and identity-related significance of cultural heritage. Amid the ongoing armed conflict in Gaza and surrounding regions which commenced in October 2023, a comprehensive survey has been conducted to evaluate the impact of the war—along with its associated socio-economic repercussions—on archaeological sites, with particular emphasis on the phenomenon of antiquities looting. The study systematically examined 440 randomly selected sites across the West Bank. Employing a multidisciplinary methodology, the research integrates extensive on-site documentation—including written records and both ground-level and drone photography—with the analysis of satellite imagery for selected sites. Additionally, interviews with antiquities looters provide key insights into the motivations, methods, and scale of this destructive activity. The findings reveal that a significant proportion of the surveyed sites have suffered extensive damage, with up to 70% of the total area of some sites affected within a single year.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44740,"journal":{"name":"Archaeologies-Journal of the World Archaeological Congress","volume":"21 2","pages":"252 - 286"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145062334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
