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, spirits and protectors of for example forests, rivers, villages, and homes.

PEOPLE´S ERA – A journey to the origins of stories

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