Court dance was generally assumed to have developed in the 9th century under King Jayavarman II (802-850) having returned from Indonesia. He also established the devaraja (god-king) cult and founded the Khmer empire that was to last for several centuries. During the Angkorean period from the 9th - 15th century A.D. many monuments began to appear and so did Khmer art that included temple deities and apsaras (celestial nymphs) that guarded the temples and entertained the gods. During the classical Angkorean age from 10th century to 14th century. Elegant apsaras began to appear in their thousands on temple gates, bas-reliefs, pillars, pediments etc... The elegant nymphs were found especially carved on the temple of Angkor Wat under the reign of King Suryavarman II (1113-1150) that was to serve as his final resting place, as well as a temple dedicated to the Hindu deity Vishnu. Angkor Wat also served as the finest example of Khmer art to the Khmer people.
