抄録

At the height of the Angkor Dynasty, between the 12th and 13th centuries, Jayavarman VII constructed an extensive network of “Royal Roads” through his vast territory centered on today's Cambodia. Of the number of roads stretching outward in a radial pattern, it was commonly believed that the royal road running in the southeast direction extended as far as, or ran through, Isanapura, or the Sambor Prei Kuk Monuments. However, based on aerial photographs and onsite explorations between these two ancient cities, we confirmed the existence of the royal road constructed by Jayavarman VII and another ancient road that is believed to have been constructed during the pre-Angkor period. The former connects Angkor Thom and Prasat Andet. The latter connects the royal city of Isanapura and a spot to the south of the Roluos Monuments or a spot to the south of the West Baray, although the ancient causeway turns into a water channel west of the Roluos Monuments.<br> The existence of the sole arterial road, which is estimated as being constructed during the same period as the capital city of Isanapura, and the fact that it leads to the Angkor region, supports the assumption that the Angkor region around the West Baray had already been a major regional base and even perhaps a sub-capital to Isanapura, during the pre-Angkor period.
