Description: |
|
This temple is behind Wat Chom Chuen and consists of another
group of historic buildings in existence since pre-Sukhothai
times. The most important historic structure here is a main
shrine in the ancient Khmer architectural style, built from
laterite blocks. Archaeological excavations unearthed deposits
containing brick fragments and characteristic artefacts of the
Dvaravati period, around the 6th- 10th century AD. This evidence
suggests that brick buildings might have been present in this
area before the laterite shrine made its appearence and replaced
them. |
