History on Repeat is a new eight-part miniseries that aims to delve into key aspects of Malaysian history. While we won’t be able to cover every period and topic in our vast and complex past, we will be having a series of conversations on key subjects, places and themes, and discussing why our history still matters today. For our first episode, we speak with Dr Nasha Rodziadi Khaw, lecturer in the Centre for Global Archaeological Research, Universiti Sains Malaysia, and discuss the roots of the Malay World through the lens of archaeology.
