The world of Southeast Asian scholarship has suffered an immeasurable loss with the death in October 1969 of Professor George Coedès, the undisputed doyen of those who have studied the early history of the region. In a lifetime of scholarly activity, beginning with the publication of his first article on the early history of Cambodia in 1904, Professor Coedès prepared a rich heritage for those who seek to understand the intricacies of the history and culture of the Indianised states of Southeast Asia.
