We received funding from ASIANetwork Freeman Foundation Student Faculty Summer Fellowship for Emily Powers Dean, Shawn Fehrenbach, Rogelio Rivera, and Mandy Turner -- all NKU students and Dr. Judy Voelker to travel to mainland Southeast Asia in June 2005 to conduct analysis on ceramic material from the archaeological site of Ban Non Wat, northeast Thailand. Our research will familiarize us with Thai culture and society.
It's 1am local time -- we are in Bangkok at our hotel. Everyone is exhausted from the 12 hour flight from Chicago to Tokyo, the 4 hour layover in Tokyo, and then our last flight of 6 hours from Tokyo to Bangkok. It's hot, humid, and raining here.
