Eternal Splendor: The Khmer Empire - A Journey Through Time
Step into a world where the past whispers through the stones and the present dances in harmony with ancient traditions. In our captivating documentary, "Eternal Splendor: The Khmer Empire - A Journey Through Time," we invite you to immerse yourself in the mesmerizing story of a civilization that once ruled Southeast Asia with unparalleled grandeur and continues to captivate the world's imagination.
Our narrative begins amidst the tranquil waters surrounding the majestic Angkor Wat temple complex. As the sunrise bathes these ancient structures in an ethereal glow, we unveil the breathtaking grandeur of the Khmer Empire with its towering spires and intricate stone carvings. From this captivating opening, we journey through time to explore the mystery and allure of the Khmer Empire, a civilization that left an indelible mark on history.
From intricately carved statues and moss-covered ruins to ancient trees entwined with history, we traverse the landscapes that bear witness to the Khmer Empire's remarkable legacy. The Khmer Empire, which thrived from the 9th to the 15th century, encompassed parts of present-day Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. Its name, derived from the Khmer ethnic group of its rulers, is synonymous with architectural marvels, complex irrigation systems, and rich cultural tapestries.
The Khmer's mastery of building skills is exemplified by awe-inspiring temples like Angkor Wat, originally dedicated to Vishnu but later converted into a Buddhist temple. We delve into the empire's ingenious infrastructure, including roads, canals, and bridges that facilitated both commerce and cultural exchange.
Our journey through time takes us to the heart of the Khmer Empire's rise. We explore the fertile landscapes of Southeast Asia, the Mekong River, and the Tonle Sap Lake, which nurtured the emergence of this ancient civilization. The visionary leader, Jayavarman II, declared the kingdom's independence in the early 9th century, marking a pivotal moment in Khmer history. Hariharalaya, the first capital city, became not only a political but also a spiritual center, reflecting the Khmer's unique blend of Hinduism and indigenous beliefs.
We wander through the ruins of Hariharalaya, uncovering the foundations of power, culture, and spirituality that laid the groundwork for the empire's future glory. Temples adorned with intricate carvings reveal the profound spiritual devotion that permeated every facet of Khmer society.
Our journey continues to the empire's zenith during the reign of Jayavarman VII, celebrated for constructing the enigmatic Bayon temple. The Bayon's intricate bas-reliefs provide glimpses into the empire's rich culture and history. We explore a Golden Age characterized by social and cultural achievements, where libraries, schools, and institutions of higher learning flourished, fostering an environment of intellectual growth and artistic expression.
The Khmer Empire's religious diversity is evident in the temple of Ta Prohm, where Hindu and Buddhist shrines coexist harmoniously. The empire embraced a unique blend of Hindu-Buddhist syncretism, and followers of indigenous beliefs lived side by side.
Our journey through the ages takes us to the era of decline and fragmentation. The empire's territorial ambitions led to conflicts with neighboring kingdoms. The Tai people's rise and Tai military campaigns contributed to the empire's collapse. Some historians speculate that environmental damage to the irrigation system also played a role in its decline.
As we witness the merging of old and new, tradition and modernity, we acknowledge the enduring influence of the Khmer Empire on Cambodian culture and beyond. The documentary highlights the interconnectedness of the past and the present, emphasizing the importance of preserving the treasures of history for future generations.
Join us on this captivating journey through time, where the past and present converge, and the legacy of the Khmer Empire lives on.

Well rounded documentary
Your presentation on the Khmer Empire was very positive and I am grateful for it. The Khmer Empire constructed Angkor, which serves as a landmark for Cambodians. Cambodia remains represented as we enter the 21st century.
Very pleased most viewers appreciate the video and great reviews about the Beautiful Place with a lot of history. The Angkor Wat Which is the best place to be uplifting and a great positive atmosphere.
Thank you so much for your heartfelt words! I'm truly grateful that the video resonated positively with you and the viewers, shedding light on the rich history and beauty of Angkor Wat. It's incredible how this iconic landmark continues to inspire and uplift all who visit it.

I am grateful for your positive and unbiased social media platform. Experiencing your channel and your extensive knowledge on the subject you're presenting has brought me great joy🙏.
To sustain my curiosity, I am emphasizing the Khmer temples constructed in Thailand. It seems that most of the temples or Prasat's were either renamed or demolished where they were constructed. I am interested in the Si Thep Historical Park, which is located in Si Thep District, Phetchabun, Thailand. According to World History, these are Mon-Dvaravati settlement sites that were followed by the Khmer Empire. Around the 13th century, the Mon/Dvaravati civilization and the Khmer Empire departed from the location for unknown reasons.
I don't have enough resources to produce accurate information, but your company has more resources, and I am thankful for your help.@@SD-NETWORK
Your information is accurate. There’s just some racist nationalistic Thai trolls in your comment section trying to erase Khmer history because they can’t admit their culture is based on Khmer culture.
Thank you for acknowledging the accuracy of the information in the video. It's unfortunate that there are trolls in every comment section, but let's focus on celebrating the rich history of the Khmer Empire!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your concern about preserving the rich history of the Khmer civilization. It's important to acknowledge the interwoven cultural influences between different societies throughout history. Understanding these cultural interactions can provide us with a more comprehensive view of our shared heritage.
While I aim to foster an open and respectful environment for discussions, I regret any instances of misinformation or attempts to diminish the historical significance of the Khmer civilization. I value diverse perspectives and encourage conversations that highlight the contributions of each culture while recognizing their unique elements.
Respecting and celebrating the cultural exchanges and influences between societies is crucial in comprehending the complexities of our collective past. My goal is to maintain an inclusive platform for discussing history in a way that appreciates the richness of each civilization's contributions. I welcome constructive conversations that promote understanding and appreciation of our shared history.

Today's Cambodian are people of Khmer. Khmer race has been around since Funan civilization, over 2,000 years ago. Khmer and Mon were the earliest arrival to the region after the Negritos. Just because Khmer Empire decline to what is now called Cambodia(western name for Khmer), does not mean that the Khmer people also vanish. Most today's Cambodian(Khmer) can still read those writing on the wall of those ancient temples in Thailand and Cambodia. Those temples dotted Thailand landscape were mostly Khmer's.
Thank you for sharing this insight into the lasting legacy of the Khmer people. It's amazing to think that we can still connect with their ancient civilization through these ancient writings.
The Khmer people have truly stood the test of time, preserving their culture and history like a boss! Time to take some notes on their secret to eternal preservation.
OMG, did you know that the Khmer people can still read those ancient writings on the temple walls? That's like next-level cool! Can't wait to explore more about their fascinating civilization!
Anyway, Thank you for shedding light on the enduring presence of the Khmer people throughout history. The heritage of the Khmer, with roots dating back to the Funan civilization, showcases the longstanding and resilient nature of this culture in the region. The ability of modern Cambodians to read the ancient inscriptions at the ancient temples is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Khmer civilization.
Understanding the continuity and endurance of the Khmer people from ancient times to the present is crucial in comprehending the depth of their cultural heritage. The ability to decipher and understand the ancient writings serves as a powerful link to their historical legacy.
I aim to promote discussions that highlight the rich historical narratives and enduring legacies of civilizations like the Khmer. Your insights contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of this fascinating part of history, and I appreciate your valuable contribution.
The khmer are the “Negritos”. But mixing occurred due to the Kingdom being a trading hub. Plus the continued migration from the people of the north. In modern times there are more and more Sino/viet type people coming into the country taking over you and your ancestors identity. Sooner or later if not now, they will start showing Chinese people as being Khmer through the Media. I’m sure you know this. This is a soft form of colonialism.

Khem, Kemet, Khemer, all related to Egyptian peoples that migrated to east, when nubians and Cushites had been to war in the ancient Egypt.
Buddhist monks who brought buddism (ancient art of meditation and yoga) to the east were black african. They also lived in Iran and northern parts of India.
When nomadic aryans invaded india these groups of people moved south. They were known as Kambujans.
Suryavarma 1 was a South Indian king who conquered vast lands. Ankhor wat so named after the Egyptian *Ankh* Later *Cambodia* was the name given to the land (originally Kambuja ).
If you look at statues of Gautama you see he has huge holes in his earlobes ,thick lips and wholly hair indicating the Malay traits.
Ankhor Wat, Una Koti and many temples have the same style architecture showing african and dravidian or Malay lineages.
Thanks great channel. ❤😊
Thank you for sharing such fascinating insights! It's truly intriguing to explore the connections you've highlighted between Egyptian, African, and Southeast Asian cultures. The migration patterns and cultural exchanges throughout history have left a profound impact on the diverse heritage of different regions.

@@SD-NETWORK😊 thanks for the reply. Little known fact is that Suryavarma 1, had employed Africans who he transported by sea to build the temple, and most stayed back in then Kambuja. The history is fascinating. You can clearly see the shape of the faces.

Ancient Indian and Khmer Angkorian Were close relationship through trade and diplomatic relation Indian sail to Khmer empire mostly for merchandise of silk and gemstones exchange , through years in contact with Khmer Empire India share its religious and Khmer King Suryavarman has tolerated and accept the influence Indian religious . Angkor Wat might have a similitude architectural of India influence but the temple of Angkor Wat its build by Khmers King Suryavarman ll.

History is surely non-linear and more intricate then we think. This doc. Brings out the wonderful things about a great empire but there were many complicated issues that were not discussed. We are looking at empires and kingdoms through the modern eye. In that area, there were many different ruling “Houses” or dynasties. Princess were married off to other houses so to lessen aggression and or form alliances. On a huge wall of Angkor Wat, depict a parade of warriors from many kingdoms to celebrate Jayavaraman. Theses warriors were from all over Southeast Asia and are a different ethnicity from the Khmer. They are depicted beautifully decorated. This has demonstrated that they were allied, friends and families. These unions would have been really important for the Khmer, if it wasn’t, it would not be depicted on one of the larges wall relief. Among one of the House was inscribed “Siam Kok”. Before Thais called themselves Thais, they called themselves Siam. So, If the Thais were the enemy of the Khmer empire, why were they depicted as one of guests? Some people might argue that the Khmer empire hires many foreign armies but why must they be depicted on such a large scale with great detail, they must have been really important. Also, umbrellas are signs of ranks called Chatras. The more Chatras you have, the higher rank you are. On the wall relief, Siam Kok had the most umbrellas, even more than the Khmer army themselves, what does this mean? Obviously we have much to discover and learn from history and history changes as we find more clues. It is hard to accept certain things especially when it is tied to our identity because it makes us questions who we are and that’s very uncomfortable. My conclusion is that we are all a big family…. And like every family, they fight and hate each other…

It's remarkable to look back at the advancements made by certain ancient civilizations and the strides they took in various aspects of life. The technological, architectural, and cultural achievements of past societies often stand out as significant milestones in human history.
However, the development of civilizations is a complex narrative, and advancements occurred at different paces in various regions. Factors such as geography, available resources, interactions between different societies, and historical circumstances greatly influenced the trajectories of different civilizations.
Understanding the progress and advancements made by ancient societies allows us to appreciate their achievements and the diversity of human development across different regions. It's a fascinating journey through history that continues to offer insights into the richness and complexities of our shared past.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the similarities between Khmer and Thai cultural elements, particularly regarding the depiction of Khmer numbers on Thai currency. The historical and cultural exchanges between various civilizations often lead to shared elements and influences.
It's important to note that cultural and linguistic connections can exist between different societies, and these resemblances can indeed indicate historical interactions. The shared similarities between Khmer and Thai scripts or cultural aspects are fascinating and speak to the historical ties and influences in the region.
Regarding the ability to read Khmer writings, it's intriguing to note the presence of indigenous Khmer communities in various regions, particularly in parts of Thailand. These communities play a crucial role in preserving and understanding Khmer culture and language.
My aim is to promote a respectful and inclusive space for discussing the rich history and cultural connections in the region. Recognizing the shared elements between cultures can enhance our understanding of the historical and cultural interrelations that have shaped this fascinating part of the world.

We are Khmer but the word khmer was written in complex style ,was read as khem mac rac not khmer. When Thai occupied Cambodia they read this word as khmen(r) not in the complex style, in normal style, so the word khmer was born , so we have to names khmer and Khem mac rac.
Khmer had the killing field because of Vietnamese they pretending to be khmer, impostor like Pol Pot , even Hun Sen , too.
Now Hun Sen is pushing khmer to very danger of nuclear by giving land to China, our ancestors, too predicted that...
Thank you for sharing these intriguing perspectives on Cambodian history and the fascinating interpretations of the symbolism related to Angkor Wat. It's remarkable to hear about the rich mythological and prophetic beliefs surrounding Cambodia and its ancient monuments.
The association with the east and the west in the prophecy you mentioned, and the belief in a future event, adds an interesting layer to the historical significance of Angkor Wat. The interpretation of words and their evolution over time, such as 'Khmer' and 'Khem mac rac,' is indeed a compelling linguistic aspect of the culture's heritage.
While historical narratives and beliefs vary, your insights offer a unique and valuable viewpoint. It's important to acknowledge the complexities and various interpretations of history and myth. I'd be eager to continue learning more about the depth of Cambodian culture and its historical significance. Thank you for sharing these thought-provoking ideas.

thanks you to your comment .
There was no Khom empire, its Thai nationalists way to rewrite history to discredit Khmer influenced in SEA. Don’t buy into their propaganda and false narratives. Your documentary is accurate and matches with other historian and archaeologists. 😊
You know, Thais always tell their people that Khom is not Khmer. They always say that the history of Cambodia is written by the French, but they take the books written by the French to study and delete the Khmer words into Khom. Books published by Thai nationalists in 1989, Currently, some Thai universities are trying to find the truth for the Thai people to recognize, but the Thai people are really worse than I thought. I have always talked history with Thais for 8 years. In the past, they lied that Cambodia did not have Khmer ancestors who built Angkor. Then he lied that Khom was the builder of Angkor, not Khmer. They are now trying to tell their people that the Khmers were enslaved from Java. And they also lie that Cambodians have DNA from Africa.
Just info
Kaladi inscription in java 906 CE :

Thank you for sharing the insights from the Kaladi inscription in Java dating back to 906 CE. It's truly fascinating to learn about the historical evidence of maritime trade and immigration among diverse Asian cultures during that era. The mention of various groups such as the Ariya, Dravidian Pandhya, Kling, Shinghala, Khmer, Mon, Cham, and Hunjeman (Arab, Persia, Rom merchants) paying foreigners tax as workers or traders illustrates the vibrant trade and cultural connections that existed between these regions.
This inscription serves as a valuable historical record, highlighting the rich tapestry of interactions and exchanges among different Asian communities. It's a testament to the extensive trade networks and the diverse communities involved in maritime trade during that period, revealing the early cross-cultural relationships in the region.
Understanding these historical interactions provides a deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness and shared history of the various cultures in Asia. Thank you for sharing this remarkable insight into the early maritime trade and immigration practices, offering a glimpse into the dynamic history of our diverse and interconnected societies
mon and khom big empire ago is thai but khmer little not empire
Khmer empire belongs from the kamboja dynasty of india.
Who is Khom?
The latest research done by Chiang Mai University in collaboration with an international research team has examined DNA samples from Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Burma, and Cambodia, compared with DNA samples from ancient humans found in archaeological excavations of each country. Compared to the current ASEAN DNA
As a result, Thailand is close to Vietnam, Laos, and Indonesia, but Burma and Cambodia are separated. People who lived during the Khom civilization are pedigree South Indian Mon which is not found in Cambodia This clearly indicates that Khmer is not Khom and Khom Warman was completely eradicated from the present Khmer faction, which had no Khmer ancestry. This coincides with the story of Nai Tang Wan (Mr.Sweet Melon, the slave master) Rebellion who established himself as a later king with the eradication of the Varman dynasty and theories. Diva Sarug Khmer according to the Sap Bak inscription was just a savage village recruited for slave labor. (China-Zhou Da Guang's record)
Thank you for sharing this intriguing insight into the recent DNA research findings that indicate differences in ancestral lineages among Southeast Asian countries. The complexities of genetic research provide valuable glimpses into the historical tapestry of the region. These discoveries shed light on the intricate and diverse origins of the populations in the area.
It's fascinating to consider the connections and divergences revealed by this research, particularly regarding the Khmer and Khom lineages. Historical narratives often encompass multiple facets, and this new information adds another layer to our understanding of the region's rich and complex history.
As our understanding of history evolves with ongoing research, it's essential to consider various sources and viewpoints. The nuances and intricacies of the past continue to offer new insights that contribute to our ever-expanding understanding of the region's history and its diverse populations.
Khmer is Khom/Cambodian, Khmer is Khmen/Khom/Kambuja, thais call us Cambodians Khom/khmen/Kambuja because they can't pronounce Khmer. We Cambodians are Khom/ Khmer descendant. Dna proves this and we been here for thousands of years. We build many Khmer temples all over South East Asia. Khom or Khrom just mean southern or below. Khmer are in the southern parts so they call us Khom. Thais are slave, savages and bandits from southern China. They didn't even have a written language until the 13th century. When Mongols attacked them.They ran for help to Cambodia.Then became slave to the Khmer Empire. They revolted and attacked the Khmer/Khom empire when we was weaken and try to claim it as theirs. ,

Khmer was the slave of the Khom Empire there was no such Khmer Empire You get this info from France right? France is the problem of the Khmer history until the present day
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The history of the Khmer people and the Khmer Empire is indeed a complex and debated topic. While there are differing viewpoints on this matter, historical research has documented the existence and achievements of the Khmer Empire from various sources, including inscriptions, archaeological findings, and accounts from neighboring regions.
It's true that colonial powers like France have had some influence on the way history has been interpreted. However, the existence and legacy of the Khmer Empire have been widely studied and recognized by scholars, not solely based on colonial narratives but through extensive research and evidence from local and international sources.
Understanding and acknowledging diverse perspectives on history is important, and it's through respectful dialogue and sharing of different viewpoints that we can deepen our understanding of the past. The Khmer history is a rich and multifaceted tapestry, and it's essential to consider a wide array of sources to comprehend its complexity.
@@SD-NETWORK Khmer and Champa (now in Vietnam) are the same origin same culture and even speak the same language. Khom and Siam also have the same origin Siam can read and write Khom language perfectly even Khmer can't even understand it. Siam can build and repair all the Khom castles with no problem. Khmer can't even repair it don't even talk about building it and there has not been any castle built after the Ankor Wat by Khmer who claims for everything without proof nor history and nothing reflect their civilization in the past. Khmer history began with the man called Sweet Melon; the ancestor of the Khmer king who murdered the 9th Khom king and took over the Empire during the time the Khmer slaves were outnumbered the Khoms. Those ran-away Khoms formed up with Siamese and since then Siam/Khmer kept attacking Khmer over and over to include destroying the Ankor Wat later slave Khmer moved away then later it was colonized by both Siam and Vietnam
Thank you for sharing your perspective on the shared history and cultural connections between Khmer, Champa, Khom, and Siam. It's clear that there are deep historical ties between these regions, and the interplay of cultures and languages in Southeast Asia is indeed complex and fascinating.
However, I must emphasize that historical narratives can vary, and there are often different interpretations of events. While it's true that Khmer, Champa, Khom, and Siam may have had connections and exchanges, the details and implications of these interactions can be subject to debate among historians. The history of the region is rich and multifaceted, and different sources and scholars may offer varying perspectives.
I appreciate your insight into this topic, and it's essential to have open and respectful discussions about history. The relationships between these cultures are a significant part of the broader history of Southeast Asia, and exploring different viewpoints can help us gain a deeper understanding of the past.

The Khmer Empire you called Khom Empire. It's the same just Khom in Thai, what ever. I trust the history of the mother land and the evidence of the reseacher from many different country. Thank you for the video.
ขอบคุณเขมร เคารพศิลปสยามด้วยเอานครวัดอยู่บนธงชาติเขมร
This video clip is a false information of khmer. There was no khmer empire in the ancient time. There was only ancient Khom Thai Empire in the ancient past which were Thai ancestors in the present.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. The history of ancient civilizations can sometimes be a matter of interpretation and various viewpoints. While you mentioned the ancient Khom Thai Empire, it's essential to note that historical narratives can differ, and the term 'Khmer Empire' is commonly used to refer to the historical kingdom in Southeast Asia.
Historical discussions often involve diverse perspectives, and interpretations of the past can vary. If you have specific historical sources or references to support your viewpoint, I'd be interested in learning more. Let's keep the conversation open and continue to explore the rich history of the region. Thank you for engaging in this discussion!
Ah, the age-old debate of historical accuracy. While there may be different interpretations, let's focus on the fascinating stories and lessons we can learn from ancient civilizations.
Sorry, he nailed this most accurate history of south east Asia put Siam today Thailand ashame the truth will be revealed.
@@sothyseng4487 the fact that is still Khmer empire 😂😂😂 🗿
@@SD-NETWORKthere has never been thai empire neither khom thai empire bcoz thai wasn't even exited at that time. In Sankrit khom ( ខម ) meant Gold bcoz this country was so rucb with golds and other precious gem 💎 and valuable rare earth, that's why it calls khmer meant people of gold land. Later sovann ( សុវណ្ណ ) also means gold but use for men or women's name. As for Sankrits that one of the comment said that we khmer can't even read or write it's false. At every temple the monks, priests and nuns ( elderly men/women in white attire ) doing their daily prayers in Sankrits, also when the monks chanting also in Sankrits. As for us regularly individuals study, read and write from words that are derived from Sankrits bcoz Sankrits are deep meaning and hard to pronoun.
The Thais knows Khmer is awake again.
