Abstract

IN MEMORIAM MARTIN THOMAS BALE (7 MARCH 1970 – 21 SEPTEMBER 2018) With the passing of Martin Bale on 21 September 2018 in Gimhae, South Korea, the field of Korean archaeology lost one of its most active and ardent supporters. Martin was a pioneer of Korean prehistory in North America, devoting more than twenty years to the study of the Mumun Pottery Period (ca. 1500–300 B.C.) and broader East Asia. His interest in Korea was borne out of his training in anthropological archaeology—he passionately believed that the Korean evidence is among the best to answer questions regarding emergent complex societies. He was dedicated to and had incredible insight into a wide range of topics such as political economy, social inequality, settlement patterns, households, identity, archaeological Asian Perspectives, Vol. 59, No. 1 © 2020 by the University of Hawai‘i Press.
