The Preah Norodom Sihanouk-Angkor Museum in Siem Reap province will hold a one-year exhibition of ceramics and various artefacts donated by residents of the Angkor site. The exhibition will kick off on July 03, 2023 and last until June 31, 2024, said the APSARA National Authority in a news release this afternoon.

Khoy Savoeut, Acting Director of the Preah Norodom Sihanouk-Angkor Museum, said the upcoming exhibition will display 16 pieces of ceramics. They are hard brown and green pottery with smooth layers, which were baked in a kiln between 1,000 and 1,200 degrees Celsius. The 16 pieces of ceramics originated from eight villages in Siem Reap province, he pointed out, adding that they are the types of art objects that have different ages and origins.

Therefore, he continued, the public, students, teachers, and researchers can come to learn more about the history of these works of art, with professional officials presenting the latest information related to research, religious practice, business, and people’s contribution to the preservation of antiquities and sustainable national heritage.
