The Malaysian National Museum (MNM) is displaying roughly 100 artifacts and scientific documents from Viet Nam’s bronze age Dong Son Culture at an exhibition in Kuala Lumpur.
Exhibits focus on Dong Son Culture, its functions, bronze carving technology, artifacts, and Dong Son Culture in Malaysia. A NMVH representative said the exhibition aims to promote the centuries old culture of Viet Nam to international friends, including Malaysian people.
The event is part of festivities marking the 90th anniversary of discovering Dong Son Culture (1924-2014).
Dong Son Culture, which existed for nearly a millennium from 1,000AD to 1 BC, was discovered in 1924 in Dong Son village, Ham Rong ward, Thanh Hoa City.
The exhibition is being staged at the museum on Jalan Damansara Road, Kuala Lumpur from now until May 5.
