Khmer people own a number of various boats, including the boats used by navy in a war to win a victory cover Cham in the reign of King Jayavaraman VII. According to the post-1177’s study, Khmer battle boats in the Angkorean Period have had diffirent length from 17-27 meters. Which cloud load about 15 to 21 people. Twenty nine of the ancient boat sculptures in Bayon temple are seen, demonstrating the courage of navy in the King Jayavaraman VII’s period. The archaeologists illustrate that the ancient Khmer boats and Cham boats carved in the wall of Bayon temple are the victory of the King Jayavaraman VII’s navy force oever Cham’s navy in the war after 1177 A.D.
Noticeably added, in the 5th century A.D’s Nokor Phnom period, They was the Chinese memoir in the reign of Qi in the South China, revealing that the ancient Khmer boats were about 1.5 to 1.8 meters in width and about 24 to 25 meters in length. The features of those ancient boats are the Makara’s head sculpture and Hamsa-Spraying Garuda’s Sculpture while some other boats had no special features on the bow. In the same way, The sculptures of Dragon’s tail and Hamsa’s tail were seen at the stern of the boat.
With reference to the study on those ancient boat sculptures, we saw that the naval armed forces were efficiently and strictly organized in the King Jayavaraman’s Angkorean period. More noticeably, the water battle between Khmer and Cham naval soldiers was done along the Tonle Sap river, not far from Phnom Krom, where was recognized as the entrance of the Khmer empire.
Prasat Chrung
The Khmer term “Chrung” (pronounced “tshrong”) means “corner” or “angle”. That’s the name of the location, the four corners of the city walls of Angkor Thom. Thus, Prasat Chrung is not one temple, but four, and they are in more than three kilometres distance from each other. Nevertheless, the shared name makes sense as the temples are similar in design, too. All of them are simple Prasat towers on a cruciform ground plan and open to the east, the two Prasat Chrungs on the eastern city wall have additional entrances to the west. The walls are decorated in the Bayon style of Angkor Thom, for example with female divine beings called Devatas in niches.
The Prasat Chrung temples were dedicated to the Bodhisattva Lokeshvara (Avalokiteshvara), the same Mahayana saviour to whom the central Bayon temple of Angkor Thom was dedicated.
A visit of a Prasat Chrung temple requires a 1.5 km walk or bicycle ride on the city walls, 3 km up and down, this is why Prasat Chrung is untouristed and pretty charming. The most interesting of the four Prasat Chrung locations is at the southeastern corner of Angkor Thom, as already mentioned. There is no optimal time for visiting it.
Run Tadev
We are far from fully understanding the purely functional aspects of the city. An ancient water outlet, known as Run Tadev, is still in use today at the southwestern corner of the enclosure wall. We do not know if the nearby rectangular reservoir, Beng Thom, or the pond known as Trapeang Daun Meas in the northwestern quadrant of the Royal Palace, existed in ancient times.
