Abstract Non Nok Tha is one of several recently examined sites in NE Thailand yielding
burial and occupation deposits covering the period c. 3500 BC to the present. These have
provided evidence for bronze technology and rice consumption from initial site use. A study
of the faunal remains indicates the presence of domestic cattle (Bibos) and pig, and
probably water buffalo and dog, by the fourth millennium BC.
