Dong Son cultural community Cộng đồng Văn hóa Đông Sơn Explanation: Keep it simple. There is nothing wrong with Dong Son Cultural Community to be translated as Cộng đồng văn hóa Đông Sơn, because if you read its history, you'd understand that the phrase referred to a Bronze Age culture in ancient Vietnam. "Dong Son Culture" is the modern name of "Lac Viet Culture". Dong Son is a village in Thanh Hoa, Vietnam, and is a 'community'. However, since "Văn hóa Đông Sơn" has been accepted as a term for a long time and people tend to be familiar with it, and it has become a preference. That is why 'community' is left out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dong_Son_culture |

Dong Son Culture / Dong Son Culture Archeological Sites Explanation: The word "community" usually refers to a group of people with certain characteristics living close to each other in a defined area. For example: "The Vietnamese community in Los Angeles, California". "Cộng đồng Đông Sơn" consists of a number of archeological sites, so if you like, you can translate it into Dong Son Culture Archeological Sites. Dong Son Culture is one of three well-known archaeological cultures that contributed to form the first administrative state of Vietnam. The first site was accidentally discovered in 1924 at Dong Son village (Thanh Hoa province). https://baotanglichsu.vn/en/Articles/3188/16665/dong-son-cul... |
