Abstract: This piece reviews the six volumes of "The Origins of the Civilization of Angkor" The volumes are the result of more than twenty years of archaeological research in north-east Thailand, focusing specifically on the Mun Valley region and incorporating both survey and excavation techniques.I will limit my review to a summary of the volumes and a discussion of their overall conclusions. After this I will give my opinion on the impact that the volumes and the The Origins of the Civilization of Angkor project have had on both Thai prehistory and the practice of south-east Asian archaeology in general.
