       With the history of ancient Cambodia, there are quite a few authors and gatherers. Endowed with a long history of Cambodia (Based on carbon 14 at Lang Spien Cave in the Northwest of Cambodia, proving that humans lived in this land of Cambodia at least 4200 B.C.), there are new assumptions that need to be studied further, able to expand their knowledge further.
       For the content of this blog, I am the author,
compile, and improve. I would like to focus on studying the construction period of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom (Maung Phra Nakhon - In Thai perception) (B.E. 1333 - 1896 or A.D. 790-1353) or Buddhist century 14-20 (some scholars say that the Phra Nakhon era is between A.D.802-1431) is also important because in this ancient city era The Kingdom of Cambodia has the most prosperity. Both in architecture, religion, culture, and tradition, social system, government, warfare, water storage, and allocation system. The diversity of peoples involved in the region, etc. There are some scholars who have said that the prosperity and population density in this era of the capital city. Comparable to the current New York City of the United States.
       Which has sources of information scattered throughout the book, academic articles in volumes, including information on new items, assumptions, and theories appear on various websites. Try to compile, analyze, make comments, and references as much as possible about this ancient city-kingdom as much as possible.
       Near Vietname's OcEo, a Roman coin was found. 2nd or 3rd century, Indian utensils Muang Og Kaew's jewelry and emblem is an important port linking it to the middle of the ancient Cambodian kingdom. (The merchants and pilgrims used this port as a return trip between China and India in the early Christian era) archaeologist led by Louis Malleret believes that this port city lost importance in the 4th century.
