Abstract
Cultural interactions can be traced through archaeological evidence linking Mainland Southeast Asia and Island Southeast Asia, as well as linking Southeast Asia, China, and India. Examples are discussed in terms of the movements of raw materials, knowledge, technologies, finished goods, or even craftsmen. Through examining the flows of varied objects such as jade, glass, bronze, iron, and gold from their source or homeland to other locations, a picture can be reconstructed of the complicated inter-community networks in Southeast Asia prehistory. These long-distance and long-term networking activities significantly shaped the cultural diversity of Southeast Asia, as it is known today.
