Buddhist ceremonies in old Cambodia in 1907

[@cambodianostalgia]

Although Cambodian music is more like Gongs (Roneat, Gamelan) and flutes, this is kind of an interesting fusion between aboriginal music and Buddhist culture. So intriguing! Thanks for sharing!

[@michaelijsbrand]

Thanks for the info. I have changed the title of the clip likewise. I always appreciate responses from viewers.

Khmer belong to Siam before French came.

[@therock8224]

I can't believe this was supposedly taken in 1907. The buildings look spectacular and very much the same as buildings there do today. I would have thought in 1907 buildings in Cambodia were all thatched huts but evidently not. Looks like Cambodia was a lot more advanced in 1907 than a lot of people think.

[@rieyareviewreaction4114]

I think so but you know if this country have no khmer rough regime you will see more building like that alots!

[@therock8224]

@@rieyareviewreaction4114 yes that's very likely.

[@kmycherry]

That's the thing. Other counties couldn't help to see how beautiful the country is. So therefore neighboring countries have a plot to to killed all the smart and educated khmer people.

[@therock8224]

@@kmycherry Nah. What a ridiculous conspiracy theory. The Khmer leadership plotted and went ahead with killing all the educated Khmer people. Behind the Khmer rouge were American financiers (not public knowledge) and the Russians/Chinese also supported them with weapons and know-how, but certainly not neighboring countries. Yes, the Vietnamese invaded Cambodia but that was to put a stop to Khmer Rouge attacks across the Vietnamese frontier. It also helped to put an end to that murderous regime.

[@academicusprecarius]

It is really from 1907? Because colour movies were not yet available before 1920. Only colour photography but that was an extremely work intensive technology in those days. I assume, this movie is digitally remastered with colour.

[@GauchosTanto]

Yes. At least the normal people in parade looks Cambodian, dresses in Cambodian style and has that Cambodian trademark drum. Not to mention, the temple looks Cambodian style too. I would guess this would be South Vietnam, in Mekong Delta. Or Surin in Thailand.

Very beautiful. May I ask for the name of the temple and which province is it?

[@pannanhol3651]

Battabong wat satakay

[@Ratanachhim81]

It was taken in Cambodia. 1) Khmer temple style is different from Thai (bigger style), 2). Some women this video are wearing long rim shirts and it is only Khmer style. I agree that Khmer and Thai dresses look almost the same.

[@TheChandhi]

It is wrong to say Thai, they are Khmer or Moon ethnics, they dressed same kind as Khmer. They unluckily live under the foreigners occupation and were overwhelmed by the Thai and disappeared almost the same as Cham people, by the Youn.

[@d.c.3534]

@@jadej51I don’t know why some people think Cham people were wiped out. Cambodia still has the highest number of Cham people. Same with Kola people. They weren’t wiped out either, they just don’t make a distinction like before but people keep thinking they don’t exist anymore. Most everyone now will refer to themselves as Khmer even if they are not ethnic Khmer, especially if the don’t live in ethnic villages. Heck I’ve even seen a video of a young girl denying she was an ethnic minority even though her aunt is and she was speaking in another language to her in Ratanakiri

This is a very interesting film, and thanks for putting it up. However, it certainly isn't the Pathé 1907 film, Moeurs cambodgiennes - the description of that film in the Pathe catalogue is quite different. There's also a contradiction with the date you give just below the film, i.e. 1910. Where did you come across the film, and what happens at the end - was there more to it?

[@michaelijsbrand]

Thanks very much for the comment. My description is based on the german titles in this cassette. Meanwhile I have corrected the date in the title.

To anyone who claims these people look African, they don't even look remotely African to me. They are simply dark skinned Khmers. They look pretty much like most Khmers do today (except for the small percentage of lighter skinned elite Khmers of Vietnamese or Chinese admixture).

[@therock8224]

@@rieyareviewreaction4114 that's good and you must be in the minority, because in Asia, most people have a disdain for black skin. They prefer light skin and view those with darker skin as being less educated, perhaps being farmers or construction workers. This mentality is pervasive all over the region.

[@hiwhowhatareyoudoinghereme1974]

Amazing! Where did you find this video?

[@TheChandhi]

We should be lucky to be able to watch this video, but not to blame or go into political background. Siem Reap, as I still remembered, that my grand father came from with all the people, whom were as his servants. He setup in Chaktomuk rivers and married to a local women. Please stop blaming : To the Khmer Rouge story: The people used the Khmer Rouge for their own interests, whenever it come to the conclusion. These people never talk, they were fleeing the country, because of the Vietnamese invasion and occupation. The Khmer Rouge did not exist anymore, when these people had the chance to flee. Without the Khmer Rouge, many of them, whom immigrated to the luxury western world might still struggling in the jungle of our country. l have to inform you, I have nothing to do with any regimes, who brought the Vietnam war into Cambodia. I left the country before 1970, but still remembered, the time after the coup d'Etat 1970 from my yearly 2 weeks vacation in Cambodia, that the country was not anymore the same as before. I don't blame General Lon Nol, or other Khmer leaders, but I strongly blame the foreigners, who make the profit from our beloved country and our people, because in their mind, the Khmer are the people too primitive and were not able to survive from the two Khmer people rivalities, Thai and Youn. I live most of my life in Europe, but am now very proud to be a primitive Khmer, then before.

[@robiewert2270]

[@kwanyincita3390]

[@paritchiwarak4880]

I'm a Southeast Asian and I think this was likely not the ceremony of installing a new abbot. It looks more like the ordaining ceremony of a new monk (or novice).

[@paritchiwarak4880]

An abbot, who was also an ordained monk, would not wear that kind of robe and hat. They are the typical attire for the man who is about to be ordained, but had not done the process yet.

[@sombatkhnor5720]

@Niyorills Keep telling lies to the world. Learn and educated yourself. Being delusional and naive is not educated. Your so called Siam king is not above no one in this world, and I can care less about your king. Your fake history and culture will only reveal how ignorant and delusional and brainwashed the siamese think. Like the old saying goes..."When you tell so many lies, you start to believe in them." You are very well educated indeed, good job. And you act like your own people never killed your own people? Stupidity. Its call a civil war, or some kind of a conflict fighting amongst their own people(Political/For the throne) every country/civilization in the world has gone through it, throughout history. FYI the Khmer genocide wasn't just done by our own people, which is horrible. The Siamese, Viet Congs, and the illegal American bombings also contributed to the genocide. Go do some research if you are so educated. The Killings of thousands of Khmer refugees and Cham refugees by Siamese soldiers at Mount Dangrek. I'm not going to my time on uneducated ignorant, racist Siamese. Karma will get you, I promised you that.

[@ផាន់មុនីឧត្តម]

Some Thais are so nationalist that they do not dare to acknowledge the fact that Cambodian culture is deeply rooted in Thailand from the past to the present. Traditional culture, script, language, dance, temple construction and Khmer territory that Thailand invaded and occupied to the present.😊

[@Handle_Edit]

Thailand did not invade…It was invented by the European Colonial Power…Language was changed or Fused between Khmer and Lao language due to Colonial Pressure…Divide and Conquer right in front of your eyes. Same as Vietnam…a Colony of the Portuguese, propped up with Westerner Military and propaganda. Want another example? Look at Israel, which is more extreme because the invaders are of Europeans themselves.
