Kubo in cooperation with late Dr. Y. Kojo (archaeology), Prof. T. Nakagawa (Architecture) and Cambodian Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts. N. Nagumo joined from 2004. Our main results are as follows: 1) Monuments and relics were mapped by using aerial photos and ground reconnaissance with GPS. 2) Geomorphological map of the area was made by interpreting of stereo pairs of aerial photos and ground survey. 3) Stratigraphy of subsurface deposits was researched by manual and mechanical drillings. 4) Landform evolution of the Stung Sen River lowland was revealed by drillings and radiocarbon (14C) dating of deposits. 5) Archaeological stratigraphy was detected by radiocarbon dating of samples. 6) We published these results in international journals. 1. Introduction Sambor Prei Kuk is a recently registered UNESCO World Heritage site of Pre-Angkor capital (7th Century), located 20 km northeast of Kampong Thom city in Central Cambodia (Photos 1 and 2). It is about 140 km southeast from Siem Reap, the center of the 9th to 15th century Angkor dynasty. Sambor Prei Kuk site is located on an upland along the lower Stung Sen River, a tributary of Lake Tonle Sap (Fig.1). Hindu temple complexes, city moats, and several other engineering works have been found at the site (Kojo and Kubo, 2003; Nagumo et al., 2010).

  • Estimated Construction Order of the Major Shrines of Sambor Prei Kuk Based on an Analysis of Bricks

In the east area of this ancient city, the religious area was formed by three temple complexes which are composed of brick shrines and a multiple number of smaller temples with single or a few shrines scattered in the area. One of the challenging issues is to identify the dates and order in which these structures are constructed. Previous studies based on epigraphy and decorative style have estimated a simple dating of the three temple complexes. In this research, 59 major brick structures which are relatively well preserved in this area were analyzed in terms of the size and chemical composition of their component bricks. This analysis revealed that these brick structures can be classified into several groups corresponding to construction stages. The results revealed that the individual shrines in each temple complexes were built in a more complex process than previously stated, and the construction stages of the individual shrines in the vicinity were also identified as an equally complex process.

  • The Next Angkor Wat? Hile Most Tourists in Cambodia Still Make a W Beeline for Angkor Wat, More Discerning Travellers Might Want to Consider Sambor Prei Kuk Instead
    Compass The next Angkor Wat? hile most tourists in Cambodia still make a W beeline for Angkor Wat, more discerning travellers might want to consider Sambor Prei Kuk instead. Located 200km from Phnom Penh, the complex (which translates to “temple in the richness of the forest” in Khmer) received UNESCO World Heritage status this July. Believed to have flourished in the late sixth and early seventh centuries as the capital of the Chenla Kingdom, the site pre-dates Angkor Wat and is notable for the craftsmanship employed in its 100-odd temples. According to UNESCO, “the art and architecture developed here became models for other parts of the region and lay the ground for the unique Khmer style of the Angkor period”.

  • Nine Deities Panel in Ancient Cambodia ផ្ទាំំ ង ចម្លាាក់់ទេ ព ប្រាំ

Abstract: The nine deities panel has been found in large numbers and existed with several configurations of deities in ancient Cambodia. The oldest known example dates from the pre-Angkorian period and shows the navagrahas (nine celestial bodies) in a standing posture. The iconographic form differs on Angkorian-period panels, with the nine deities on their individual vāhana (mount). By reanalysing the iconography of the deities and the typological development of the panels, it is argued that this later group represents the navadevas, a term used to designate the combination of four grahas and fivedikpālas (guardians of the directions). This study also considers issues relating to the imagery’s meaning and significance, based on their iconographic and architectural contexts in Khmer temples. The colocation of the navadevas and related iconographic themes including Viṣṇu Anantaśayana, the grahas as seven ṛṣis, and the mātṛkās, clarifies that the imagery’s meaning relates to the celestial bodies, the directions and the notion of cosmological order. The panel was used both as a lintel above a temple doorway and installed inside the sanctum as an independent object near the image of the main deity, and appears to have been especially associated with shrines located in the southeast of a temple complex.

A total of 28 brick shrines which are relatively well conserved in this group of monuments were selected and analyzed from several points of view; form of plan, interior form and layout of the pedestal in main chamber, form and roo�ng structure of antechamber, form of elevation, and form of corbel arch roo�ng of main chamber. As a result of above analysis, it was clari�ed that the variety of the architectural forms are mixed and irregularly arranged in this group of monuments. Diversi�ed style of brick shrines in the Pre-Angkor disappeared after the commencement of Angkor period in the 9th century. Architectural style of brick shrines was standardized in the Angkor period; thereafter the main construction material for the major structures in temple complex shifted from brick to sandstone in the beginning of the 11th century.

The tools used in the research were field surveys and interviews with art and architecture history experts. The data was analysed and compared with other architecture in a similar period to that within this study. The analysis will be presented in a three-dimensional reconstruction using diffusion theory as the guideline to study the Khmer architecture of Vat Phou, Champasak District, Lao PDR. This reconstruction will help viewers to imagine ways to preserve ancient sites that are considered valuable heritage of the nation. The research result shows that the Khmer architectural form of Vat Phou, Champasak, Lao PDR, is in line with Khmer beliefs, which were the beliefs and culture related to the deities. The temple was built as a place to pay respect to the deities and for holding religious ceremonies. The result is in line with cultural diffusion theory, which has helped provide an explanation of the interaction between two groups of people with similar cultures and where both parties accepted the cultures.

Consequently, new ideas and hypotheses have been put forward by those who wort: in this particular field of studies. In Cambodia, prior to the recent tragic events, a number of new sites have been discovered. Fresh evidence has come to light and eventually led scholars to reconsider some views hitherto accepted as established. The present "Survey of the Southern Provinces of Cambodia in the pre-Angkor period" aims to be a re­ examination of the archaeological and some epigraphical material available in the hope of seeing whether it is possible as yet to establish any relation between the numerous sites and to provide a preliminary sketch of the culture of the area.
