When finalizing the introduction to the first issue of Asian Medicine with Waltraud Ernst, now nearly twenty years ago, we set out the charter for the new journal of the International Association for the Study of Traditional Asian Medicine (IASTAM) over coffee in Russell Square just outside the campus at University College London.We aimed "to embrace the work of both academics and practitioners and particularly to showcase Asian scholarship.""IASTAM," we opined, "has always sought to give each of these communities a platform for the expression of their views, respecting the integrity of each group."In truth, that was not always easy, what with the "epistemological carnival" (Asian Medicine 1.2 Introduction) that so often had ensued when practitioners and academics shared the same platform.So, it is a joy to present to long-standing members of our honorable society and new readers alike a double special issue that fulfills the society's and the journal's interdisciplinary and intercultural mandate.The theme of this issue is the latest archaeological finds of medical manuscripts and artifacts from the Laoguanshan 老官山 tomb site at Tianhui 天回 near the city of Chengdu in Sichuan, southwest China
