The site of Ban Chiang was first uncovered in 1957. Pottery was found with skeletal remains, glass beads, as well as iron and bronze bracelets. Recent dating methods suggest that there were three main phases of pottery-making in this culture, with the red slip-decorated wares falling into the most recent phase (300 BCE to 300 CE).
