EXPLOIT OF HANAMUNT, KING OF THE MONKEYS: ANGKOR WAT 
By means of his great strength he is able to seize two dragons, holding them in a position 
where they are powerless, and strangle them by wrapping his legs around them 
5. Procession of the 7-headed snake, 
Naga, 126 feet long. 
6. Procession of Paradise and Purga- 
tory ; length undetermined ; at least 160 
feet long. 
It is in these processional bas-reliefs 
that the life of the builders, the drama 
of their existence, comes to the surface,. 
if it comes at all. In the battle reliefs, 
particularly, there is variety of subject 
and detail, and the sculptor tells more 
to the beholder of the present than he 
ever intended. You see unknown armies 
meeting, some with Hindu head-dresses, 
but a great variety of others, including 
not a few Greek helmets.
