A dare un significato oltre modo enorme all’allestimento, sono sia gli oggetti rituali in bronzo commissionati per i templi, per il Palazzo Reale, e per le cappelle private dei nobili, capaci di riprodurre le caratteristiche del viso, gli abiti e gli ornamenti tipici della cultura e delle popolazioni “Khmer”, sia i manufatti di epoca pre – Angkor e alcune opere provenienti da recenti scavi che completano la mostra “Le divinità di Angkor: bronzi dal Museo Nazionale della Cambogia”.
