Very Old Khmer Empire Bronze Buddha Head / Statue, Cambodia / Thailand

Click the photo above for a larger version and more pictures

Detail: A serene Buddha head that was damaged – most likely – during a Burmese raid into Thailand. I purchased this from an Asian collector / gallery in New Zealand. The Khmer Empire (esotericstuff.comly Cambodia today) flourished during the 9^th through 13^th Centuries. Then it fell into the Dark Ages. The prior owner claims that this part of a damaged statue was from the late 14^th Century. A stunning piece of Cambodian history, displayed on a simple stand. For the Serious Collector.
