This inventory is the first comprehensive account of objects held by the Sri Ksetra Museum, Hmawza. It is the result of a collaborative project that started in 2014 with Museum and the Field School of Archaeology (FSOA) staff. The aims of the project were to catalogue the Pyu material and develop staff skills in museum methods. At first the goal was to document works on display in the museum, and as time permitted, objects in storage would also be catalogued. The project grew, and the resulting inventory is an almost complete account of material in the Sri Ksetra Museum Collection up until 2017.The process of cataloguing collections is never simple. At the Sri Ksetra Museum, objects are grouped by medium and we worked with this system, which is used in other archaeological museum collections in Myanmar. Parameters were established for consistent approaches to descriptive terms and measurements. Information that is of concern to archaeologists may not be a priority for a museum curator and this was taken into account during the cataloguing process. Consideration was given to the best method of storing data that would allow for its sustained use.For this reason using a commercial museum database was not considered viable at the time. The priority was to document the collection in a way that would ensure the data can be used in the future. While the system can always be improved, the most practical and user-friendly method for recording data on site was to use a Word template, each object being given a separate catalogue record. Concurrently the Department of Archaeology implemented a database that includes this information in Burmese. The naming of objects is not always consistent. Some objects have become well known through publication and these names have remained unchanged. Terms for technique are often difficult to standardise. For many ceramic objects the term ‘hand modelled’ is used, or ‘stamped’, for example, in the case of votive tablets. However, the technique for stone carving is simply ‘carved’. While efforts have been made to standardise the descriptors there is some inconsistency in the descriptive terms.
