Funded Activity Summary

Industries of Angkor: Material Production and the Decline of the Khmer Empire (11th to 15th centuries CE). Australia is an important partner in developing and maintaining regional relationships in the Asia-Pacific region. Within Cambodia, Australia has made substantial contributions to the redevelopment of its social, academic and professional infrastructures shattered by decades of civil conflict. This multidisciplinary project will introduce new techniques for unlocking the relationship between settlement and industrial activity at Preah Khan, the largest Angkorian centre. Through collaboration with ongoing University of Sydney research, Cambodian universities and government institutions this project will further enhance Australian relations by contributing new information on the operation and demise of one of the World's great empires.
