New Data on Icanapura or Sambaur- Prei- Kuk

by Dr. Michel Tranet . Published date: 9 October 2009

Our objective is to confirm the specific location of Icanapura or Icanapura City in late 6th century and early 7th century, which lay on the area of 1 km squares and far away from Sambaur- Prei- Kuk temples, about 2 km to the west. Through this new data, we can rectify wrong view that previously thought that Sambaur- Prei- Kuk location was the site of Icanapura.
