Abstract: Two sites representing prehistroic technologies of economic significance have been excavated in northeastern Thailand. Ban Dong Phlong was an iron smelting site, rapidly being destroyed by modern activities. Non Tung Pie Pone was a salt making site. The functioning of this site was elucidated with reference to ethnographic observations of salt making practices in the region.
