I first heard the term 'cord marked' while reading the descriptions of pottery at the Ban Chiang dig museum. That village dated back to 3600 BCE. I could see the markings. Very Cool.
Thank you for another interesting article.

There's something intriguing about Ban Chiang and I haven't quite figured it out yet. FReeper JimSEA brought this area to my attention. (I suspect they're early Sundaland refugees?)
