Love your vid as always, although I do like it when you cite your sources and further readings in the description. Makes for more reliability and integrity.
Your videos are great! Very informative on a niche subject but not too long. I hope more people get a chance to see your stuff!
Our first buddhism was Mahayana Buddhism that was adopted since 5th to theravadi but it wasnt official yet as khmer buddhism society lives have been facing criticism over religion between hindu and buddhism until angkor wat was started to build in 10th but it was delay due to protest of khmer buddhism so king jayavarman7 devoted himself to buddhism to support khmer buddhism and the religious get united as angkor wat first project was nokor temple and when it get united it call angkor wat(nokor pagoda) and when angkor wat was almost finish in building king jayavarman7 declare himself to buddhism-hindu
Don't wanna be that guy, but what's going on here 08:18?
Looks like a royal domestic scene with siblings in a box bed, queen (?) and new borns await the prince . He has horse and retainer - presumably not all in the chambers at the same time. It looks like a medieval composite illustration.
Really interesting account which bears on some of the world's greatest monuments.
@@causewaykayak Hmm, yes. It makes sense now. I'd thought the siblings' were outside the main room as some sort of servants' chamber. Perhaps the horse waiting nearby gave me that impression. But thanks!
