Indonesia's Mysterious Srivijaya Kingdom That Thrived Over 1,000 Years Ago | The Mark Of Empire

The name ‘Srivijaya’ was only discovered in 1918, yet the origins of this mysterious kingdom date back to more than a millennium ago. Curator and scholar Peter Lee travels to Indonesia to unlock the mysteries of the Srivijaya era. He finds clues to the kingdom hidden within one of the most iconic Buddhist monuments in the world, Borobudur, and unearths new finds at an archaeological dig in a remote forest in North Sumatra. Peter also goes on a fishing trip with the seafaring members of the Orang Laut, and traces how the Srivijaya secured control over strategic ports and sea lanes, rising to become a dominant trading entrepot in the region.
