  1. Beauty is Power, and Power is Beautiful By Team P3 Jan-Marie Kellow, New Zealand Seiji Yokoyama , Japan Md Rezaur Rahman Akonjee, Bangladesh Robert Griffin, Canada Nor Jannah Hassan, Malaysia Nguyen Thi Anh Dao - Vietnam

  2. Sample Images • Power and beauty in the 12th and 13th century of Angkorian Society was denoted by costume, hair length, ornamentation, items carried, and by objects owned, such as the method of transportation.

  3. Servant Status As one can see with this lowly fire starter, the dress is minimal, hair is short, and there is no ornamentation.

  4. Ordinary PersonThese Pig Fighters wore very simple attire, no ornamentations and had short hair.

  5. Dancing Women of Court Woman were carved with breast exposed, size counts. Status of the dancers in court was denoted by head dress

  6. Important Woman of Court The head dress is one indication of this woman’s importance. What do you think other indications might be?

  7. Important QueensWhich woman has more status. How do you know?

  8. Warrior Status of warriors was depicted by hair length, ear lobe length, weapons carried and method of transportation

  9. General Indicated by weapon, elephant ride, and umbrella

  10. General of Status • Weapon in Hand • Many umbrellas • Long ear lobe • “Cool” ride: Elephant Ride

  11. Royal Personage • This bas relief depicts a king of important status: • He has many umbrellas • He has an elaborate head dress crown • He has long hair • He has many servants

  12. Very High Status General • Many umbrellas, imposing position, large elephant, and many warriors.

  13. Most Important King: Why?

  14. Beauty is Power, and Power is Beautiful Is this lesson from the study of Angkor Wat true today? Are we attracted to beauty, and do we entrust the “beautiful people” with power? Do we copy the beauty trends–the clothing styles, the hair styles, the ornamentation, and the objects they possess–of the powerful, thinking them to be beautiful?

  15. After examining the lessons of Angkor Wat, create a project to represent how this history lesson is still relevant today. You may choose the method of presentation that best suits your learning style.
