  • Bat Chum (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបាទជុំ) is a small temple built by , a learned Buddhist minister of Khmer king Rajendravarman, at the middle of the 10th century. It is about 400 meters (1,300 ft) south of Srah Srang, at Angkor, Cambodia. It consists of three inline brick towers (in poor conditions at present), standing on the same platform, surrounded by an enclosure and a moat, with a single gopura to the east. On the doorjambs there are Buddhist inscriptions that mention Kavindrarimathana, the "architect" (or official in charge for construction) who built Srah Srang, East Mebon, and maybe planned the temple-mountain of Pre Rup. The latter was dedicated in 960 AD, shortly before death of the architect. There were houses and a Buddhist monastery near the temple, but these wooden structures have been gone for a long time. During the excavations in 1952, in the northern and central towers, flagstones showing a yantra were found, which George Coedès was able to reconstitute and with extreme difficulty link to the Buddhist divinities mentioned on doorjambs. In every tower there is a different inscription signed by three different persons. The last verse of each of the three refers to the elephants as "dyke breakers". (en)
  • Le Prasat Bat Chum est un petit temple hindouiste dressé au Sud de la pièce d'eau du Srah Srang. Il est construit sur le site d'Angkor au Cambodge au début du Xe siècle sous le règne de Rajendravarman, par Kavindrarimathana, architecte entre autres du palais royal et du Mebon oriental. Le temple comporte trois tours en brique (en assez mauvais état) aux ouvertures tournées vers l'Est et posées sur une terrasse de latérite. Entouré d'un fossé, actuellement cultivé par les paysans (rizière), ses tours sont gardées par des lions en grès. Les frontons et chambranles sont en grès sculpté, et comportent des inscriptions finement ciselées en sanskrit. L'entrée se fait par l'Est en suivant une levée de terre et en traversant une enceinte en ruine au niveau d'un Gopura (lui aussi ruiné). En 1952, les archéologues ont retrouvé dans ses fondations un Yantra en grès. Il exprimerait la connaissance du monde de son bâtisseur. * Portail du Cambodge * Portail de l’archéologie * Portail de l’hindouisme (fr)

  • Bat Chum è un tempio minore costruito da , ministro buddista di vasta cultura del re khmer Rajendravarman, nella metà del X secolo. Si trova circa 400 metri a sud del Srah Srang, ad Angkor, in Cambogia. Il tempio è costituito da tre torri di mattoni (attualmente in cattive condizioni) allineate da Nord a Sud su una piattaforme comune. È circondato da un muro di recinzione ed un fossato, con un singolo gopura di entrata ad Est. Sui pilastri delle porte vi sono iscrizioni buddiste che menzionano Kavindrarimathana, l'"architetto" (o funzionario incaricato della costruzione) che edificò lo Srah Srang, il Mebon orientale e forse progettò il tempio-montagna di Pre Rup. Forse in origine si trattava di un tempio induista: durante gli scavi, iniziati nel 1952, nelle torri settentrionale e centrale furono rinvenute delle pietre da lastricato che costituivano uno yantra. George Coedès fu capace di ricostruirlo ma lo poté collegare solo con estrema difficoltà e approssimazione alle divinità buddiste menzionate sui pilastri delle porte. In ciascuna torre è presente un'iscrizione differente, firmata da tre autori diversi, ma l'ultimo verso di tutte e tre è lo stesso e menziona gli elefanti come "distruttori di argini". (it)
