===Vishnu=== Angkorian representations of [[Vishnu]] include anthropomorphic representations of the god himself, as well as representations of his incarnations or [[Avatar]]s, especially [[Rama]] and [[Krishna]]. Depictions of Vishnu are prominent at [[Angkor Wat]], the 12th-century temple that was originally dedicated to Vishnu. Bas reliefs depict Vishna battling with against [[Asura (Hinduism)|asura]] opponents, or riding on the shoulders of his [[vahana]] or mount, the gigantic eagle-man [[Garuda]]. Vishnu's attributes include the discus, the conch shell, the baton, and the orb.
