By K. Kris Hirst, About.com

Definition: Banyan Valley Cave is located in Pang Ma Pha province of upland Thailand, with occupations dated beginning in the Hoabinhian period of the late stone age, up into the metal ages (3,500-900 BC). This site was excavated by Chester Gorman in the early 1970s, who discovered important evidence for upland use throughout this period.
