Abstract:	The Sa Huynh culture is significant in Vietnamese prehistory primarily as a precursor to the Champa civilization, which is generally associated with the introduction of Hindu cosmology and architectural structures into Central Vietnam. While investigations of many archaeological sites belonging to the Sa Huynh period were undertaken by French scholars during the colonial period in Indochina, recent Vietnamese excavations of Sa Huynh sites have expanded our knowledge of this late prehistoric culture considerably. This paper provides the results of a comparative study of two Sa Huynh sites on Ly Son Island.
