An imposing sandstone acroterion in the shape of a palmette. The high quality of the craftmanship and the rigorous formal balance suggest that it is an architectural fragment belonging to a building of primary importance. Fragments stylistically similar to this are still visible at the remains of Preah Ko, the temple of the "Sacred bull", in the disappeared city of Hariharalaya, or in Angkor on the walls of Banteay Srei, the temple dedicated to Shiva. Both temples, built between the 8th and the 9th century, are an example of the technical and aesthetic virtuosity achieved by Khmer era architecture characterized by perfect volumes embellished by striking and brave relief decorations.
