    This Buddhist building symbolizes the Buddha himself and his teaching, the Dharma. A circular burial mound similar to the early stupas was originally used to bury rulers in India and has been known since prehistoric-megalithic times.

      More commonly referred to as chedi (chedey, cetyi, Khmer: ចេតិយ) in Cambodia, stupas are tower-shaped mausoleums used to keep the bones and ashes of the deceased. They are scattered throughout the grounds of a pagoda and are typically found in Cambodia. They were usually funded by wealthier believers for themselves and their dependents. While the prang derives from the Indian shikhara prototype, the chedi is influenced by both Indian influence through the prototype of the stupa, particularly Sanchi, and other influences, particularly the prototype of the stupa at Ruwanwelisaya in Ceylan, from where Theravada Buddhism also originates.
