Last month, a linga was found in the wooded side of the hill at Phnom Bakheng, about 30 meters from the visitor path. A linga is a phallic symbol incarnation of the Hindu god Shiva: Phnom Bakheng, built between ninth and tenth centuries, was originally dedicated to Shiva. Stone sculptures, either lingas or divine statues, would have been installed in each of the 109 shrines of the temple.
