Prohm Kil Temple ( The End)



Part 1, Part 2  He unpacked the food package the horse owner asked to keep and smelled deliciously of the food. Appetizing and uncontrollable, Prohm Kil ate it until he was full up.

Waiting for the horse owner and not seeing him return, Prohm Kil decided to unpack the bag. When he found the clothe in the bag that the old man kept with him, Prohm Kil thought of trying them on to see whether or not they suited him because from he was born till then, he had never worn any nice clothes. Then he tried on the clothes. 

Seeing that he had good appearance, Prohm Kil thought that he wanted to try riding that white horse.

When Prohm Kil was getting the horse to be calm, it did not really buck at all. Instead, it kindly let him ride on its back as he wanted. No sooner did he put one of his legs on its back then the horse suddently flew forward and that wood was name Prey Somrach (successful wood) because Prohm Kil could ride the horse. The horse flew around Angkor Thom Temple, the capital city of King Dombang Kranhoung.
King Dambang Kranhoung was furious. “Who dare ride the horse flying over my temple,” said the king angrily. Infuriated, the king took his rosewood bar ( Dambang Kranhoung) of great power to throw to the fortunate person, Prohm Kil, but missed him.  The bar went away into the forest and after then the forest was call prey Battambang (the lost bar forest) and up to now this forest has become a city, known as Krong Banttambang.

Realized that he lost his magic power due to the loss of his great magic bar, The King Dambang krranhoung fled to Lao ( the neighboring country of Cambodia).  The fortunate person, Prohm Kil was crowned the king after King Dambang Krohnoung name named King sinthpor Anouk Reach ( Prohm Kil) and during the period of his ruling, he made change on Khmer flag. He put the picture of  a white horse on the new flag to pay his gratitude to the white horse for throne and the victory over King Dambang Krohnoung.  

 






He was a powerful traveler who gained the throne from his father. He built the temple for the memory where the old man kept the white horse with him, called Prohm Kil Temple. And his name was been called so until now. It is the small temple near the riverside as it has been told. The end
