The Chinese in southeast Asia c. 1980

Caption

The Chinese in southeast Asia

Summary

The map purports to identify the main areas of concentration of Chinese people in
southeast Asia, as well as other areas of Chinese settlement, apparently in about 1980.

The map does not distinguish between immigrants who originally came
from China, Han immigrants from China, the descendants of such people,
and people who speak a Chinese language as their mother tongue.

The criteria for determining the shading are also unstated.

According to the source, by the 1980s, there were 6 million “overseas
Chinese” in Thailand, 4 million in Malaysia, and more than 3 million
in Indonesia. The term overseas Chinese however is
similarly ambiguous.

Spread of Farming (7000 BC – AD 500)

Spread of Farming (7000 BC – AD 500)

Summary

“Farming (and, later, urban life) began independently [in] just a few critical landscapes, and became widely adopted by their neighbours. While this was not the result of a single movement of peoples, or any simple process of colonization or cultural expansion, it is essential to recognize the clear overall pattern. This can best be described as a contagious process, initiated in a few nuclear areas, which gave rise to a traveling wave of population increase and cultural change…

“In the Old World, the two principal nuclear areas were the Near East (western Asia) and China. The Near East developed earlier and faster, so that it came to affect a larger proportion of the landmass, before the two macrosystems came increasingly into contact after 2000 BC, at first indirectly but from 500 BC more directly – both via the steppe region and through India. It was not, for the most part, a simple process of passive “diffusion” (though many key innovations spread outwards from the central regions); instead, the process of contagious spread gave rise to increasing regional diversity by reaction and local re-interpretation of the opportunities presented by this process.
