BEAUTIFUL CAMBODIAN APSARA OR TEP APSOR OF ANGKOR WAT TEMPLE OF KINGDOM OF CAMBODIA -B

WHEN DID APSARA COME INTO EXISTENCE?

According to scholars, the Apsara dance already existed in the 6th-7th centuries. Hundreds of Apsaras are depicted on the stone carved walls of the Angkor site, especially in Angkor Wat, the ancient city of Angkor Thom, and other ancient temples in Angkor city. The most famous Khmer King of the Angkorian period, Javayarman VII (12th century), was said to have over three thousands of Apsara dancers in his court.

APSARA IN HISTORY

Meaning ‘water nymph’ or ‘celestial spirit’, the Apsara is deeply rooted in ancient Indian mythology. Legend has it that these beautiful, divine beings would descend from the heavens to entertain gods and kings with their captivating dance and charm. Apsaras are predominant in South and Southeast Asian history, as can be evidenced from ancient Hindu and Buddhist texts and artworks (particularly Angkor Wat).
