Paleontology in Thailand
text:
Paleontology began as a subject of academic interest in Thailand in the early twentieth century, mainly conducted by foreign researchers working with the Royal Department of Mines and Geology, the precursor of the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR). Most early paleontological research was the by-product of mineral exploration for the country's developing mining industry. The first scientifically described fossil from Thailand was that of the bivalve Posidonomya becheri siamensis from Ban Khua
