George Cœdès and Śrīvijaya: From Epigraphy to Archeology
In 1918, George Cœdès was instrumental in revealing the existence of the maritime polity of Śrīvijaya (7th–13th century). In doing so, he also initiated the study of Old Malay, the main language used in the inscriptions issued by Śrīvijaya. This article examines the intellectual process that led him to this “discovery”. It also discusses the debates that followed, particularly concerning the location of Śrīvijaya’s capital―whether in southeast Su…
Ship Timbers at Paya Pasir: The 1988–1989 Rescue Excavation
This contribution is a report on an underwater salvation operation carried out in 1989 in a heavily looted large pond at Paya Pasir, thought to have functioned as a landing place for ships serving the Kota Cina settlement. A large amount of broken parts of ships and boats of various sizes were recovered, drawn and studied, together with a large quantity of pottery sherds. All the recovered timbers belonged to ships, small and large, that were bui…

A Real Seafaring People”: Evocations of Sailing in Malay Literature
The people in the city-states of the pre-colonial Malay-speaking world of Southeast Asia are often described as seafaring and maritime in their habits. This was often remarked by Western observers, until sails gave way to steam in maritime transport. Many such terms were glossed in early Malay dictionaries and lists of Malay nautical terms were often appended to more general works. No study of this specialized vocabulary was however produced so f…

The assembly of hulls in Southeast Asian shipbuilding traditions: From lashings to treenails
This article describes the techniques used in Southeast Asian boats and ships to assemble planks and frames as observed over the past two millennia in archaeological and ethnographical contexts. Planks were first lashed with vegetal fibre and dowelled, with frames also lashed to planks. The sewing of the planks later gave way to treenails only, with frames still lashed to planks. In large ships, the lashings of planks to frames were finally also …
Srivijaya: Trade and Connectivity in the Pre-modern Malay World
The Malay city state of Srivijaya, a major actor in world economy between the seventh and the thirteenth centuries, grew at the centre of a complex set of networks encompassing much of the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea. On the basis of a critical review of past studies and the results of recent research in the archaeology and epigraphy of south-east Sumatra and the Thai-Malay Peninsula, this chapter presents a much revised and improved rep…

Austronesian Shipping in the Indian Ocean: From Outrigger Boats to Trading Ships
The peopling of Madagascar by Austronesian-speaking communities is one foremost—and indisputable—witness to their long-distance ventures across the Indian Ocean.2 Linguistic, anthropological, and various other types of evidence regarding Austronesian expansion west of Southeast Asia have been thoroughly studied during the past century. In this chapter, I will concentrate only on the maritime orientations of those people of Insular Southeast Asia …

This book takes stock of the results of some two decades of intensive archaeological research carried out on both sides of the Bay of Bengal, in combination with renewed approaches to textual sources and to art history. To improve our understanding of the trans-cultural process commonly referred to as Indianisation, it brings together specialists of both India and Southeast Asia, in a fertile inter-disciplinary confrontation. Most of the essays r…

Shipshape Societies: Boat symbolism and political systems in Insular Southeast Asia2
La symbolique des motifs de bateau va plus loin qu'un simple « culte du bateau » ou « bateau de la mort ». Ces motifs représentent la société dans son ensemble, symboliquement et poétiquement. Ainsi ce motif déjà présent dans la civilisation dongsonienne, est disséminé à travers l'Asie du Sud-est insulaire ; on le trouve dans les tissus à jonque de Sumatra, dans l'ordre social symbolique à Java et dans beaucoup d'autres contextes
