The Ancient Khmer's Dimensional Planning at the Prasat Pram in Koh Ker

A new analysis of the Prasat Pram temple at Koh Ker, Cambodia, reveals that its architectural planning follows a consistent dimensional system also used across other temples in the site. This study confirms a previously proposed construction measure and provides insights into the scale and layout features unique to Khmer temples in Koh Ker. By focusing on this small but representative structure, researchers have uncovered patterns that likely apply to the broader archaeological landscape of the ancient city.
