This project aims to understand changes after the breakdown of low-density urbanism in Cambodia. Recognising the emergence of urban forms after the demise of Angkor challenges the global “Collapse of Civilisation” trope, and redefines the Middle Period of Cambodian history (15th-19th century). This project proposes that continuity, renewal, variety and adaptation are as apparent in Cambodia’s middle period as loss and failure. Applying landscape archaeology to this ‘dark age’ of Southeast Asian history embeds the demise of low-density urbanism and the development of towns in an environmental context. Identifying adaptive pathways after ‘collapse’ could have implications for urbanism in the tropics.

该项目旨在了解柬埔寨低密度城市化崩溃后的变化。认识到吴哥消亡后城市形式的出现挑战了全球“文明崩溃”的比喻，并重新定义了柬埔寨历史的中期（15 - 19世纪）。该项目提出，在柬埔寨的中期，连续性、更新、多样性和适应性与损失和失败一样明显。将景观考古学应用于东南亚历史的“黑暗时代”，嵌入了低密度城市化的消亡和环境背景下的城镇发展。在“崩溃”后确定适应性途径可能对热带地区的城市化有影响。
