DESCRIPTION: Great Sites of the Ancient World : New Surprises from Ban
	 Chiang\, Thailand  From its discovery by a Harvard student falling on

	t central role in the biggest U.S. case to date on international antiq

	one of the big Ban Chiang debatesâ€"the source for the earliest bro
	nze metallurgy at the site and in Southeast Asia generally. She also g
	ives a first-hand account of her three-year participation in the inves
	tigation of Ban Chiang smuggling\, including her role in the Federal r
	aids of several California and Chicago-area museums in January 2008. $
