Outline of Final Research Achievements

On this survey, we conducted elucidation of Khmer city space, especially about its production, technique/technology and distribution, based on the excavation survey within Angkor Thom, mainly in Bayon Temple.
Specifically, we conducted following six points: (1) arranging of previous survey records, recording for making archaeological chronology and drawing up the inventory, (2) excavation survey in the Bayon complex and out it, (3) exhaustive survey within Angkor Thom and sampling of archaeological remains from surface of the earth, (4) analysis of sampled natural and metal remains and preservative treatment of the metal them, (5) basic arrangement of purification tools from the pond for preservative treatment in the future, (6) technical knowledge transfer for the Cambodian young archaeologists. Additionally, we supplemented above with comparative surveying the date and material of the artifacts from domestic city sites.
