Reconsidering the Cultural Relations between India and Southeast Asia during the 6th and the 15th Centuries

今年的研究重点是调查印度与东南亚大陆的关系，特别是香榭王国和高棉王国的纪念碑，这两个国家在中世纪都受到了印度的强烈影响。为了进行初步调查，该项目的首席调查员卡拉什马教授于9月份被派往印度，与印度成员一起研究泰米尔铭文。去年12月，樱井教授被派往柬埔寨和老挝进行灌溉系统的地质调查。今年2月，石泽教授被派往柬埔寨，为代表团做出当地安排。与此同时，我们在9月份邀请了印度尼西亚的Fadjar先生，并于1995年2月邀请了印度的Shanmugam博士。前者给我们带来了关于爪哇与东南亚大陆关系的额外信息。在S的协助下，我们下达了去年田野调查中收集的泰米尔插图的订单。3月5日至3月12日，我们在越南进行了主要的田野调查，并在米森、因德拉普拉、宾欣、波纳加等古尚巴遗址进行了广泛的调查。从13日起，调查在吴哥窟、巴永、东梅本、Neak Paan、Ta Keo、Preroup、Palace、Baken等吴哥遗址进行。在实地考察中，我们发现了一些迄今不为人知的铭文，其中一些是拉梅什博士翻译成英文的。我们在项目期间的观察得出结论，所谓的印度化东南亚是一些印度元素的*东南亚化，西方学者在殖民时期提出的*东南亚印第安化“的概念，应该与来自印度、东南亚和其他国家的参与者一起刻意重新考虑。

The focus of this year^<, >research was to investigate the relation between India and the mainland Southeast Asia, with special reference to the monuments of the Champa and the Khmer kingdom, both of which flourished with the strong Indian influence in the Medieval period.For the preliminary survey, Prof. Karashima, the chief investigator of the project, was sent to India in September to do research on Tamil inscriptions with the Indian members. In December, Prof.Sakurai was sent to Cambodia and Laos to do geological survey on the irrigation systems. And in February, Prof.Ishizawa was sent to Cambodia to make local arrangement for the delegation. Meanwhile, we invited Mr.Fadjar from Indonesia in September and Dr.Shanmugam from India in February 1995. The former brought us additional information regarding the relation between Java and the mainland Southeast Asia. With the latter^<, >s assistance, we gave order to the Tamil inseriptions collected during the field survey of last year.From the March 5th to March 12, we did the main field research in Vietnam and extensively surveyed at the sites of ancient Champa, like Mison, Indrapura, Bindhin, Ponagar and others. From the 13th onward, the survey was done at the sites of Angkor, like Angkor Wat, Bayon, East Mebon, Neak Paan, Ta Keo, Preroup, Palace, Baken and others. During the field research, we discovered number of so far unknown inscriptions, some of which were translated into English by Dr.Ramesh.Our observations during the project brought us to the conclusion that what was observed in the so-called Indianized Southeast Asia was the *Southeast Asianization" of some of the Indian elements, and that the concept of *Indianization of Southeast Asia, " developed by the Western scholars in the colonial period, should be deliberately reconsidered with the participants from India, Southeast Asia and other countries.
