Abstract:
Since 1992, the Angkor complex has been classified as a UNESCO World
Heritage site. Angkor designates not only a geographic region, but it
also designates a cultural landscape which includes a living cultural
heritage of inestimable importance in anthropological and linguistic
terms. The villagers of the Angkor Region are known to be particularly
conservative with respect to ancestral traditions, and a great number of
archaic cultural practices that have disappeared elsewhere continue to
be performed in its villages.
Angkor region stretches from the great lake of Tonle Sap on the south
toward the Kulen Range on the north, which covers an area of several
thousand square kilometers. Based on geographical and environmental
factors in the context of a long history of human occupancy, the region
can be distinguished by three major types of village community. Each
type occupies one of the main ecological sub-zones of the region and is
differentiated by socio-cultural characteristics. Angkor world heritage
site covers on area 401km2, covered partially the three types of the
community, including 112 villages.
The research conducts on the selected representing of 60 villages, which
is firstly, focusing on the village landscapes which are constrained by
settlement structure and the local environment. Many villages are
situated on ancient infrastructure. Other villages are found close to
ancient temples or clustered around a temple, which gives a different
character to the village landscape. Some villages have gradually
developed in a cluster around a central Buddhist monastery. The villages
are surrounded by rice fields, vegetation or the forest of their
communities. Secondly, the research is working on traditional
handicraft, weaving, blacksmith, collection of medical plants and other
natural forest products for trading with the citizen within Angkor
region. The residents of the Angkor area trade these products for fish
and other commodities from the Tonle Sap area. The residents of the
Angkor area trade these products for fish and other commodities from the
Tonle Sap area.
The results from the study shows the daily life of many Angkorian
villages which are supposedly not changed much, traditional crafts and
weaving are still practiced. These include basket, mat and natural broom
dressing; root thatch dressing; weaving cotton and making alcohol from
rice. These activities are performing under or near the house. These
practices have unique cultural value and should be the focus of
sensitive management approaches as they may be utilized by the tourism
industry, in which the Contribution of Intangible Cultural Heritage for
Sustainable Communities Development will be responded.
