  • Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation
    Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation The Preparatory Study on The Siem Reap Water Supply Expansion Project Chapter 5. Groundwater Simulation Daily water demand in Siem Reap has been estimated at a maximum of 86,300 m3/day in 2030. This amount is far more than the existing water supply capacity of SRWSA. Therefore, the existing water supply system has to be expanded. When the expansion plan is formulated, groundwater is considered as one of the options for water source. Simply considering from the groundwater recharge amount of 516,000 m3/day, that is about six times the estimated water demand. Hence, in case of available groundwater development amount evaluation from the viewpoint of balance between withdrawal and recharge, the value of 516,000 m3/day can be taken as the potential amount for groundwater development. However, not only the balance between groundwater recharge and withdrawal, but also the effect of groundwater development such as increasing of pumping volume in the future and selection of development areas has to be taken into consideration. In Siem Reap the most important effect from groundwater development is the groundwater level drawdown, because the groundwater drawdown can cause land subsidence. As mentioned in Chapter 4, 4-5-3 Summary of Groundwater Recharge Calculation, because Siem Reap lacks a deep and highly permeable aquifer, if all the recharge amount of 516,000m3/day were used for water supply, the groundwater level will fall to 5 m below the ground surface in the whole Siem Reap area. The actual water demand is about one sixth of the recharge amount.

First, it is essential that Cambodia strengthens the conservation of the Temple; second, Cambodia must develop an appropriate management plan and submit it to the World Heritage Centre by 01 February 2008, because the review process would take up many months until July, to see whether or not our management plan is appropriate; and third, Cambodia and Thailand should develop a close cooperation in support of the inscription. If Cambodia fulfills these three conditions, then in 2008 the inscription will be automatic.

  • Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park the Complete Temple Guide
    Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park The Complete Temple Guide 1 The Temples of Angkor Ak Yom The earliest elements of this small brick and sandstone temple date from the pre-Angkorian 8th century. Scholars believe that the inscriptions indicate that the temple is dedicated to the Hindu 'god of the depths'. This is the earliest known example of the architectural design of the 'temple-mountain', which was to become the primary design for many of the Angkorian period temples including Angkor Wat. The temple is in a very poor condition. Angkor Thom Angkor Thom ("Great City") was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer empire. It was established in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. The walled and moated royal city covers an area of 9 km², within which are located several monuments from earlier eras as well as those established by Jayavarman and his successors. At the centre of the city is Jayavarman's state temple, the Bayon, with the other major sites clustered around the Victory Square immediately to the north. Angkor Thom was established as the capital of Jayavarman VII's empire, and was the centre of his massive building programme. One inscription found in the city refers to Jayavarman as the groom and the city as his bride. Angkor Thom is accessible through 5 gates, one for each cardinal point, and the victory gate leading to the Royal Palace area. Angkor Wat Angkor Wat ("City of Temples"), the largest religious monument in the world, is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and eventual mausoleum.

  • A STUDY of the NAMES of MONUMENTS in ANGKOR (Cambodia)
    A STUDY OF THE NAMES OF MONUMENTS IN ANGKOR (Cambodia) NHIM Sotheavin Sophia Asia Center for Research and Human Development, Sophia University Introduction This article aims at clarifying the concept of Khmer culture by specifically explaining the meanings of the names of the monuments in Angkor, names that have existed within the Khmer cultural community.1 Many works on Angkor history have been researched in different fields, such as the evolution of arts and architecture, through a systematic analysis of monuments and archaeological excavation analysis, and the most crucial are based on Cambodian epigraphy. My work however is meant to shed light on Angkor cultural history by studying the names of the monuments, and I intend to do so by searching for the original names that are found in ancient and middle period inscriptions, as well as those appearing in the oral tradition. This study also seeks to undertake a thorough verification of the condition and shape of the monuments, as well as the mode of affixation of names for them by the local inhabitants. I also wish to focus on certain crucial errors, as well as the insufficiency of earlier studies on the subject. To begin with, the books written in foreign languages often have mistakes in the vocabulary involved in the etymology of Khmer temples. Some researchers are not very familiar with the Khmer language, and besides, they might not have visited the site very often, or possibly also they did not pay too much attention to the oral tradition related to these ruins, a tradition that might be known to the village elders.

  • 3-1 CHAPTER 3 SURVEYS and INVESTIGATIONS 3.1 Topographic Survey 3.1.1 Geography and Topography in the Vicinity of the Study
    The Study on Water Supply System for Siem Reap Region in Cambodia Final Report Main Report Chapter 3 CHAPTER 3 SURVEYS AND INVESTIGATIONS 3.1 Topographic Survey 3.1.1 Geography and Topography in the Vicinity of the Study Area Siem Reap Town is located about 20 km north of Lake Tonle Sap in the terrace of the lake having its elevation from 10 to 15 m. In the northern area of Angkor heritages, Kulen Mountain ranges (Max. elevation 487 m) run continuously in the east-west direction. These are flat-topped mountains. The topographic characteristics of the Study area are as follows. 1) The Study area is some 40 km wide both in east-west and north-south direction. The elevation of this gentle fan plain is lowered to the southward in the direction of the lake. The elevation of the plain is 25-30 m at the north end of the study area, and 1 m along the lake shore line. The gradient is less than 1/1,000. 2) The plain consists of the fan deposits of the Siem Reap River and the Roluos River. These rivers flow from north to south or northeast to southwest. Therefore, the fan plain starts at north or northeast and the contour follows north to south or northeast to southwest with slight bending towards southward. 3) The Study area is located near the downstream end of the river course. Coarse sand is dominant in the north area of gently undulating hill and fine sand to silt is dominant in the south area of marshland.

  • Historie Routes to Angkor: Development of the Khmer Road System (Ninth to Thirteenth Centuries AD) in Mainland Southeast Asia Mitch Hendrickson*
    Historie routes to Angkor: development of the Khmer road system (ninth to thirteenth centuries AD) in mainland Southeast Asia Mitch Hendrickson* Road systems in the service of empires have long inspired archaeologists and ancient historians alike. Using etymology, textual analysis and Angkor archaeology the author deconstructs the road system of the Khmer, empire builders of early historic Cambodia. Far from being the creation of one king, the road system evolved organically to serve expeditions, pilgrimages Phnom . Penh ù <> and embedded exchange routes over several i centuries. The paper encourages us to regard road networks as a significant topic, worthy of comparative study on a global scale. N 0 ^ 200 Keywords: Cambodia, Khmer, roads, routes, communications Ancient road systems: context and methods of study Investigating the chronology of road systems is complicated by their frequent reuse over long time periods and because they are comprised of multiple archaeological components that range from site to regional scales (e.g. roads, resting places, crossing points, settlements, ceramics). The archaeologist studying road systems must identify and incorporate a variety of available data sets, including historic information, within a framework of operational principles that characterise state-level road building and use. Recent trends in the study of imperial states focus on socio-cultural issues, such as pov^'er and politico-economic organisation (see D'Altroy 1992; Sinopoli 1994; Morrison 2001) and concepts of boundaries ' Department of Archaeology.
