Cymbal Found at Ancient Khmer Temple Site

Season 22 Episode 3 | 1m 30s

Archaeologist Christine Hawixbrock and her team discover a small cymbal during the excavation of an ancient Khmer temple complex. Artifacts like this would have been used as part of a religious ceremony, and suggest the presence of a royal elite here during the pre-Angkorian period.

SECRETS OF THE DEAD is made possible, in part, by public television viewers.
