Stone Age in Thailand

 

Prehistoric Thailand may be traced back as far as 1,000,000 years ago from the fossils and stone tools found in northern and western Thailand, an archaeological site in Lampang, northern Thailand. Homo erectus fossils, Lampang Man, dating back to between 1,000,000 – 500,000 years, have been discovered. Stone tools have been widely found in Kanchanaburi, Ubon Ratchathani, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Lopburi etc. Many prehistoric cave-paintings have also been found in these regions, dating back 10,000 years.

 

Early Stone Age
The Lower Palaeolithic is the earliest subdivision of the Palaeolithic or Old Stone Age. It spans the time from around 2.5 million years ago, when the first craft and use of stone tools by hominids appears in the archaeological record, until around 120,000 years ago when important evolutionary and technological changes ushered in the Middle Palaeolithic.

Early species
The earliest hominids, known as Homo erectus and recognisable as human, appear in the archaeological record between 1,000,000 - 500,000 years ago. Locally typified by the fossil, Lampang Man.
About 1,000,000 years ago, Homo erectus moved on to Asia from Africa, where it had originated. Its use and control of fire was very important tool in its hunter-gatherer method of subsistence. Homo erectus's skull was smaller and thicker than that of modern human beings. It lived in the mouth of caves near streams or other water supplies. Its main natural enemies included the giant hyena Hyaena senesis, the sabre-toothed tiger, the orang-utan, and the giant panda.
In 1999, skull fragments of Homo erectus were found by Somsak Pramankit in Ko Kha, Lampang. It was comparable to the skull fossils of Sangiran II Man found in Java, (Java man), which is 400,000 - 800,000 years old, as well as Peking Man.

Industrial estate battles floodwater

THE AMATA NAKORN Industrial Estate in Chon Buri is facing a severe battle keeping out floodwaters, which have forced 15 factories in its compound to suspend operations.

Another 78 factories outside the protection of estates, mainly in the Northeast, have reportedly been inundated.

The factories in the Amata Nakorn estate are not under water, but have been temporarily closed because of the difficulties their employees are having getting to work.

Some public areas within the estate are inundated. The highest floodwater level is between 30 and 40 centimetres.

"We expect to drain all floodwater from the estate within one or two days, if no more rain comes," Amata Corporation's chief marketing officer Viboon Kromadit said yesterday.

With support from various agencies, more than 100 pumps are working hard to clear all the floodwater. Some 43 boats have also been commissioned to help facilitate the flow of water out of the estate.

Amata Corporation operates the Amata Nakorn estate.

Royal Irrigation Department deputy director-general Suthep Noipairoj said the industrial estate was located in a low-lying area that was prone to take in run-off water from nearby areas.

Suthep said that water drainage would need to be done carefully out of concern for local communities already struggling with floods in the face of high tides. "The industrial estate and authorities will have to minimise the impact on these communities," he said.

Meanwhile, Industry Ministry inspector-general Panithan Jindaphu said 78 factories outside the industrial estates had been flooded, mostly in the Northeast. He calculated the combined damage at about Bt85 million.

Of the total, 70 are small-scale businesses and eight are medium-sized.

These factories are located in 12 provinces: 11 in Ubon Ratchathani, 16 in Si Sa Ket, 13 in Nakhon Nayok, seven in Prachin Buri, five each in Chanthaburi and Chaiyaphum, six in Angthong, eight in Sa Kaew, two in Buri Ram, three in Nakhon Ratchasima and one each in Ayutthaya and Chachoengsao.

"Remedial measures will include waivers of licensing fees. We will also discuss with other agencies the offering of soft loans, as was done in 2011," Panithan said.

One day an elephant wandered into a forest in search of friends. 

He saw a monkey on a tree.

“How can I?” asked the frog. 

“You are too big to leap about like me.”

“Will you be my friend?” he asked the fox. 

The fox said, “Sorry, sir, you are too big.” 

The next day, the elephant saw all the animals in the forest running for their lives.

The elephant asked them what the matter was. 

The bear replied, “There is a tier in the forest. He’s trying to gobble us all up!” 

The animals all ran away to hide. 

The elephant wondered what he could do to solve everyone in the forest. 

Meanwhile, the tiger kept eating up whoever he could find. 

The elephant walked up to the tiger and said, “Please, Mr. Tiger, do not eat up these poor animals.” 

“Mind your own business!” growled the tiger. 

The elephant has a no choice but to give the tiger a hefty kick.

E-book come top in school reading competition

By Judith Burns

BBC News education reporter

Nearly half the titles read by children in a new national schools reading competition were read online, says literacy charity Booktrust.

Read for My School 2013 aimed to boost the numbers of primary pupils in England reading for pleasure.

Almost 100,000 nine to 11-year-olds, from 3,600 schools signed up.

"Children were sitting in their rooms using their iPads and Xboxes to read rather than for games," said Alison Keeley of Booktrust.

Between them, the children who took part read more than 400,000 books. Some 49% of these were read online from a free digital library of 46 titles from Penguin, Dorling Kindersley and Pearson.

A poll of their teachers suggested the e-library was particularly popular among boys and less-proficient readers.

"I think boys and poorer readers just prefer reading online. It's about making it different and more exciting, a different way to use their Xbox or iPad.

"The competition website allowed us to tell what format they were reading on. Some children were particularly motivated by the competition element", said Ms Keeley.

Comments from teachers suggested that suddenly the keenest readers "had their standing in class transformed", she added.

The competition, organised by Booktrust and The Pearson Foundation with support from the Department for Education, ran from January to March 2013.

Children had to log the books they read on the competition website and answer questions to prove that they had not just flicked through the pages.

They could choose from the 46 titles in the e-library or read any title they fancied in traditional book form as long as it fitted into one of eight competition categories.

The idea was to broaden children's reading tastes as they had to read at least one book from each category, ranging from "Laugh out Loud" funny reads to "Keep it Real" factual books and including history, animal stories , sci-fi, mystery and thrillers.
