The single remaining bas-relief fragment at the 9th century temple of Bakong, Roluos, near Angkor, Cambodia. It shows asuras (demons) losing a battle, at the moment when the figurine on top of their standard has just been sliced off. Bakong, built by the Khmers in 881 AD, was the State Temple of King Indravarman I at Hariharalaya, the capital of the Khmer Empire that preceded Angkor. As other state temples, it is a microcosm of the Hindu universe. Located close to the town of Roluos, near the shores of the Tonlé Sap lake.
