Devatas

starting at €90.00

The walls carved with reliefs depicting the legends of Angkor have seen dozens of generations pass through their corridors and colonnades. The skillful reliefs tell stories of dancers, monkey warriors, seven-headed snakes – stories of heavens and hells. The dancing figures are called Apsaras, and those standing alone or in groups, looking forward, are called Devatas. They are divine beings, such as spirits and protectors of forests, rivers, villages, and homes.

HUMAN TIME – A journey to the origins of stories

The earliest signs of human activity are probably stone tools, arrowheads, and clothing made from leather and animal and plant fibers. The oldest structures, on the other hand, are simple shelters or monuments to the sun, ancestors, or gods. Every upright stone, mound, and wall tells us about the people who lived thousands of years before us, their adversities, and their hopes. They are not just ruins, but fragments of a shared story.
