947 AD Hashavarman I Rajendravarman II Hindu (Shiva). A temple mountain set back in the trees at the base of Phnom Bakheng, in materials typical of the 10th century. A brick tower opening to the east and originally decorated with stucco moulding surmounts four diminishing tiers in laterite – the upper-most of which is moulded – enclosed within a brick wall which has virtually disappeared. Four axial stairs each ascend in a single flight. More at “The Angkor Survey“.
