Eleanor Mannikka
Eleanor Mannikka is an American scholar of Southeast Asian Studies. She teaches at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania.[1] Mannikka has been studying the art and architecture of Angkor Wat since 1976.[2] She noticed that there has been serious damage to the temple of Angor Wat in 1992.[3]
Work[edit]
In her best-known work, Angkor Wat: Time, Space and Kingship, she argues that the dimensions, alignment and bas-reliefs of Angkor Wat encode a message that Suryavarman II was the divinely appointed king.[4][5] The journal, Archaoastronomy writes that Angkor Wat "is a rich resource for future fieldwork in the cosmology of Khmer temples."[2] Publisher's Weekly wrote that the book is "a cross between doctoral dissertation and love letter."[6]
