Located around 500m east of Ta Keo temple and situated on the western bank of the Eastern Baray is a large terrace structure known as Don Mao/Duan Mao. It’s a large stepped structure constructed of laterite, possibly as a landing jetty/pier for the East Baray (akin to Srah Srang), while noting that there is another more formal terrace a short walk to the north. It’s also hypothesised to be a reliquary created in the late/post-Angkor period from recycled masonry of prior construction.
Being so close together, and sharing the same axis, it would seem likely that it would have once connected to Ta Keo’s eastern bollarded entrance. Nothing of an ornamental nature can be seen and the structure is all laterite bar a few random blocks of sandstone.
