From the inscriptions it appears that ‘ the ruins at Dong Duong are those of a Buddhist temple and monastery, built by king Jayavarman in A.D. 875,’ and that ‘ the temple was situated within the town of Indrapura, which was at that time the capital of Champa, and that the widowed queen of Indravarman, named Haradevī Rājakula, installed many gods and goddesses within the temple area. The actual discovery of Buddhist images among the ruins of the temple also demonstrate the Buddhist character of the building.’¹
