Kok Troung (Sambor Prei Kuk W)

Also recorded as Prasat Kruok Troung (Tower W) is the southernmost temple of the Sambor Prei Kuk group. It is a rectangular brick temple, opening to the east, with false doors around its other sides that are flanked by “flying palace” reliefs. Also flanking the false doors, which received steps regardless, are decorative round columns topped by a decorative lintel formed by relief work. Inside the shrine, sandstone hooks can be seen in the wall, perhaps to hold a ceiling drape, or support a light wooden ceiling, and atop the laid brick floor is a square pedestal void of any decoration.
