What a great mountain track

Madeleine Colani remains the only scholar to have enjoyed unfettered access
to the stone jars of the Tran-Ninh plateau. From 1931 to 1934, accompanied
by Eléonore, her younger sister, she led several seasons of excavations at the
Plain of Jars, under difficult conditions and in inhospitable areas. Her lasting
legacy is the 2-volume monograph Mégalithes du Haut-Laos (Hua Pan, Tran
Ninh), published in 1935. Representing EFEO at the first congress of the Far
Eastern Prehistory Association, held in Hanoi in January 1932, her work
received wide acclaim and ensured attendance at several other international
conferences.

What a spiritual jar site with Buffalo bathing in a mud wallow
On the return trip the buffalo were now worshiping the jars!
The kids are on the side of the trail miles from any village.
Peering into the next valley for trails, my next target.
I run into a local hunter, share some raisins with him,
who then agrees to take my picture with this pea shooter.

Great scenery
