Abstract: English summary on page 93 as follows: The Binh Chau site (Nghia Binh) comprises two types of archaeological sites: settlement and burials. Pottery is characterised by its paint -- red, black lead, ocre and white -- associated with various designs (cord marked, punctuated, impressed, incised). There were also found fragments of crucibles, of moulds, stone pestles, hoes and knives. Burials owe their characteristics to the upset buried vessels. There were also found a pair of ear-rings in the leech shape, an earthenware weight in the pear shape. By these characteristics, the Binh Chau is likely the link between the Dong Son and the Sa Huynh cultures. Datation: about the end of millennium II, the beginning of millennium I B.C.
