Abstract: Eighty years after the "First Congress of Prehistorians of the Far East" held in Hanoi 1932 and 18 years after the "Hoabinhian 60 years after the Madeleine Colani: Anniversary Conference" in Hanoi in December 1993 / January 1994, the term "Hoabinhian" is still in use and has become well established. This paper gives a general introduction to its definition, milestones of the history of research, geography and chronology of the Hoabinhian. This paper does not claim to be all-inclusive. Its aim is to reflect the different perceptions and perspectives used in the understanding and placement of the Hoabinhian phenomenon over the course of time.
