Terrace (Vestige Prasat)

An uncleared and partially excavated site, now overgrown, where several pedestals can be seen, some molded sandstone plinths, and sema stone featuring the god Yama (God of Death/Justice and the Underworld). While the site as we see it today is believed to be the remnants of a Buddhist Terrace of the late or post-Angkor period, seeing Yama (a Hindu god) is an interesting thread to follow and how that particular Hindu god is still revered through the transition to Theravadan Buddhism.
