SUNGAI PETANI, May 21 (Bernama) -- World renowned archaeological experts who gathered here to attend the Kedah Tua International Conference (KTIC) were fascinated by the Sungai Batu ancient site during a visit here, today.
Though there were many questions raised by participants during the guided tour led by Universiti Sains Malaysia's Director of Centre for Global Archaeological Research, Professor Datuk Dr Mokhtar Saidin, they are nevertheless in awe.
The Director of the Institute of Archaeology and Social Anthropology at the University of Peshawar, Professor Nasim Khan, was amazed by the discoveries at the Sungai Batu archaeological site saying that he had learned and seen so many things about the ancient civilisation here.
"We discussed so many things about the iron smelting and about the ancient structures that still hold so many questions about what the structures are for," he told Bernama at the site during the visit.
