Preah Pisnouka built Angkor wat

Proof means proven facts, Ancient Austronauts is just a theory, heck we still haven't found any sign of life in the galaxy yet. (actually we found water)

But yeah HAHAHA I watched this whole series. interesting series if I dont say so myself. Most of the ancient temples all over the world, Greece, Maya, egypt, eupore and cambodia, are said to have been built by gods, but to the ancient astronaut theorists the "gods" are a misinterpretation of advanced alien visitors.

Another interesting thing is that when Henri Mouhot rediscovered angkor wat, the locals said it was built giants (yek). Interestingly enough, it's the same similar legends for the ancient buildings all over the world. GIANTS. If ancient aliens are true, I'm guessing they were using Mechas

WE KHMERS WERE USING MECHHAS! how cools does that sound? Should be a Gundam series on that. using the ancient astronaut as the bases of the story.

Im not sure if I believe but it was a great watch.

It will make more sense if angkor wat was built In 600bc not 11th century because if it was built in 11th century then how come know one remember how it was built?

And here another fact. European discover angkor wat in 1600s when they found it It was cover in huge thick jungles. So they say angkor wat was adbandon in 1450 that only 100 year apart when the european find it in ruin.....so how can huge thick virgin jungle grow so fast in less then 1century? Is impossible! It take at least 5 century or more.....so therefore angkor must of been built and collapse. Ah very long time ago



BingBingOoOo
I don't think we Lao even care for that temple nor do we ever talk about it because we know it isn't ours. Only Thai claim it thiers. icon_smile.gif

The Usual BingBung with a smashed mouth creeping around instigating others. Damn You, cease escalating a conflict, you're just degrading your people, your nation, your pride by doing so.

Back to the topic, it's possible Aliens came and built the Ankor Wat, just like how (people believe) Egyptian Pyramid were made.

Oh please! NoJek! You mean clever and logical mouth? beerchug.gif I'm just telling you all the truth. Laotian don't talk about Angkor Wat because it is not ours. We only respect that is is Cambodian Angkor Wat, while Thai believe it was stolen from them. Which is why Thai build a mini Angkor Wat temple in the Emerald temple in Bangkok to remind them its was once thiers. I'm not here to intigate anyone this time. beerchug.gif

It's impossible if you're an archeologist or a historian because it won’t fix the time period. During that time, India influenced were not that strong to the mainland of SEA, especially in turn of building construction and art. So how could the people of SEA(mainland) had the ability to build Angkor Wat. Plus, If Angkor Wat was built at that time it probably showed mostly Indian arts. Angkor Wat is completely new art. Moreover, at that time most temples in the mainland only used bricks to build their structures. Well Angkor Wat used stone blocks to build it, another technique that probably introduced until the late 7th or 8th century. And why no one knows much about Angkor Wat? maybe because of the religion changed and war with neighbors. Khmer kept lose a bit and a bit until everything was gone.

This is for example: the early Indian temple

Prasat Sambor Prei Kuk in Kampong Thom built in 7th century. The temple is most Indian art.

When i studied Khmer history, it said that Angkor Wat was built with thick jungles surround it, to protect the temple against invaders. Not just only Angkor Wat but most of Khmer temples were built surround jungles or trees around it.

Have you even wonder why most huge khmer temples only found in the jungles? not in middle of rice filed since Angkor was a big city?


Here another example:

If you look at the picture, this used to be a small temple structure in middle and surround with a moat and some trees and compare to Angkor Wat, the largest khmer temple, with a huge moat. Im sure the plenty of water from the moat of Angkor Wat will make those trees growing faster and thicker.

Those older temples actually more reflect the art style Srivijaya, Champa, etc. more than Indian. They used bricks more than stone (you can still see in the ruins of Champa today). And yeah, I'm suggesting there is a link between them. So goes the story of Jayavarman from Srivijaya.

And if you compare the body proportion in the bas-relief of these older temples in Cambodia, it looks more like those of Borobudur, Prambanan, etc. The Angkor ruins has a very different art style and the body proportions are different.
