In a temple hidden in the jungle, covered in places by roots, moss, and lichen, I felt like an explorer studying the long corridors and walls. The morning was quiet. I was able to admire the roofs carefully vaulted by the Khmers between the 7th and 13th centuries, the stone pavements smoothed by millions of footsteps, and the details of the crumbling sculptures in peace. There was time to peek behind corners, into the shadows of collapsed stone piles and crumbling walls, where tiny tarantula babies had spun their white webs.

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.
