Lecture on the Mon

Art historian, Donald M Stadtner, will give a lecture "The Mon: Myth or Reality?" at the Siam Society (Siam-society.org) on Thursday at 7.30pm.

Published on January 5, 2008



The talk will focus on history and culture of the Lower Burma, traditionally home to the Mon people and will also discuss the provocative new book by Michael Aung-Thwin, "The Mists of Ramanna: The Legend That Was Lower Burma", which argues that Lower Burma was not in the hands of the Mon but rather the Pyu, during the first millennium.

Stadtner, a former associate professor of Art History at the University of Texas, received his PhD in Indian art at the University of California, Berkeley.
