via the Temsek History Research Centre: The second in the THRC-ISEAS Webinar Series on the archaeology and art history of Southeast Asia (of which I am a co-convener) is a talk on Angkor by Dr. Heng Piphal. Registration via the Zoom link below.
This talk (re)introduces the Angkor civilisation from its formation in the 9th century to its political collapse in the 15th century based on findings from recent archaeological research. Angkor was one of the largest empires to ever rule a large portion of Mainland Southeast Asia. Much is known about its cult of “god-king”, political successions, great monuments, and religions. This talk will focus on the city of Angkor, urban infrastructure (monuments, water management structures, roads, etc.) and its associated social aspects, the people who lived there, and most importantly, the relationship with its provincial centers.
