Kutisvara


Now in ruins, this small brick temple consists of three towers is of more historical interest than architectural. It is buried in vegetation and difficult to find it. It was constructed in the reign of King JayavarmanII in 9thcentury. 

An inscription found on a stone re-used for the building of Banteay kdei next door mentions a dedication to Shiva and the erection of two statues, of Vishnu and Brahma, by Shiva-Carya, one of Rajendravarman II’s priests in the 10thcentury AD.
