Óc Eo, Archaeological site in Thoai Son, Vietnam
The archaeological complex spreads across 450 hectares of land intersected by ancient canals in the Mekong Delta region.
French archaeologist Louis Malleret initiated the first excavations in 1942 after discovering the location through aerial photographs.
The site contained evidence of trade connections with distant civilizations through discoveries of Roman Empire coins and Mediterranean jewelry.
The archaeological findings from this location are now displayed at the Museum of Vietnamese History in Ho Chi Minh City.
Ancient waterways connected the site to Angkor Borei through a 42-mile canal system that facilitated maritime trade.
