Researchers find evidence of a 2,000-year-old curry, the oldest ever found in Southeast Asia

Now, new research shows the trading of spices for culinary use goes way back – some 2,000 years, to be precise.

Key Points: 
  • Now, new research shows the trading of spices for culinary use goes way back – some 2,000 years, to be precise.
  • In a paper published today in Science Advances, we and our colleagues detail our findings of what seems to be evidence of Southeast Asia’s oldest known curry.
  • It’s also the oldest evidence of curry ever found outside India.

Grinding into the evidence

    • Rather, we were curious to learn about the function of a set of stone grinding tools known as “pesani”, which the people of the ancient Funan kingdom likely used to powder their spices.
    • Using a technique called starch grain analysis, we analysed microscopic remains recovered from a range of grinding and pounding tools excavated from the Oc Eo site.
    • Collectively, the results show the Oc Eo complex was occupied between the 1st and 8th centuries CE.

A spicy history

    • Most of our knowledge of the early spice trade has therefore come from clues in ancient documents from India, China and Rome.
    • This proves curry has a fascinating history beyond India, and that curry spices were coveted far and wide.

What’s next?

    • And we have yet to compare these findings with other larger plant remains unearthed from the site.
    • During an excavation conducted from 2017 to 2020, our team also collected a significant number of well-preserved seeds.
