“…Further issues can be identified from a subjective perspective. In general, there is a high level of inertia and disinterest at a political level when it comes to caring for the resource (Flecker 2002). There have been specific instances when certain governments have become more interested, but this has often been related to profit-driven investigation projects led by private firms.…”

The Honor Frost Foundation sponsored a session, 'Maritime Archaeology, Capacity Building and Training in the Developing World' at the Sixth International Congress on Underwater Archaeology (IKUWA VI) held in Freemantle, Australia, in November 2016, dedicated to capacity development in the context of maritime archaeology. The papers presented in this special issue of this journal represent an attempt to understand different approaches to capacity building and development within the sphere of maritime cultural heritage. This paper, by way of an introduction to the subject, and this special issue, aims to explore the nature of capacity building and development in relation to maritime cultural heritage.

“…Although Vietnam is relatively new to development of underwater archeology, and even although it lacks the funding to sustain such projects, the country has made reasonable progress (Flecker 2002).

The South China Sea has attained global attention because of terraria disputes over oil, gas, fisheries and other resources in the sea area. Compared with the valuable natural resources, the underwater cultural heritage is not recognized or considered, but is an important legacy of many losses of vessels over centuries. Recently, the surrounding states in the South China Sea have taken measures to preserve underwater cultural heritage in their sea waters. However, the current complicated situation of the South China Sea intensifies the difficulties of protection of underwater cultural heritagein that area. There is an important and interesting potential issue of identification of ownership of underwater cultural heritage because of differences of legislation and claims to jurisdiction. Under the current information of legislation of some states in the South China Sea, it can be understood this issue cannot be avoid on the protection of underwater cultural heritage. This article discusses potential disputes over ownership of underwater cultural heritage in the South China Sea based on the different legislation of several states (China, Vietnam and Philippines) and proposes some possible suggestions for resolving the issue of ownership, rather than performing a primary research.

“…These underwater investigations yielded important porcelain cargos which have been exhibited in the Vung Tau Museum, the first underwater archaeological exhibition in Vietnam. Unfortunately, the development of the field is yet in its infancy, and archaeological reports on the underwater excavations of some of these vessels have not yet been published (Flecker, 2002: 18).…”

This paper addresses the material boat culture of Vietnam both in its current context and more specifically through an assessment of how the boats of Vietnam have been studied in the past. It presents a comprehensive summary of past publications describing the construction, use and variety of boats in the region, from the earliest volumes to modern research projects, including the work of the US military. It highlights the rich diversity of construction approaches and boat-types that are still built and used, and demonstrates the need for further field research to record the fast-disappearing traditional boats of Vietnam.
