Heathens aren't going to like this, which creates no moral dilemma for me, because I don't care what they like or don't like. It's not that I specifically want to make them more miserable than they already are. It's just that I don't care. I've suspected for a long time that Angkor Wat may be older than it's alleged to be. It's nice to hear someone saying it.  |

I think it's where one of those awful Tomb Raider films was shot.

Looks awesome. It is. Camboidia is amazing country. Full of life, vibrancy and the history of death. |

Yesterday I was watching a video about its first king, Jayavarman II, and this one about Ankor Wat came up in the related column, so just on a whim I clicked on it. What the native guides said to that European explorer in 1860 about the temple site being haunted, it seemed to line up nicely with what I know regarding the Catholic view on ghosts. That stegosaurus carved into the wall was wild too. I'd seen the image before but didn't know where it was from. IIRC the search for dinosaur bones didn't begin seriously until the latter half of the 19th Century. |

Yeah, we know. Aliens built it. No not aliens, it was the people from the civilization inside the earth that built it. |
