The Cambodian inscriptions are generally written on stone, especially on stelae found at the great temple sites of Angkor Vat, Angkor Thom, and others. Like most of the Indic inscriptions of Southeast Asia, they are usually written in scripts related to southern and western Indian styles of late Brāhmī and in the local script derived therefrom,¹¹³ but several inscriptions from the time of Yaśovarman (ninth–tenth centuries) are recorded as biscripts in the local script and in northern Indian Siddhamātṛkā. The inscriptions are usually dated in the Śaka era.
