The Calendars of Southeast Asia : 6: Calendrical Records

Gislén, Lars LU and Eade, J. C. (2019) In Journal of Astronomical History and Heritage 22(3). p.458-478
Abstract
Calendrical inscriptions and chronicles are an important source of information on the history and civilisation of Southeast Asia. Most of the records are horoscopes but there are also inscriptions commemorating the foundation of temples and other important buildings, and on Buddha images. Stone inscriptions are necessarily commemorative and the event celebrated is frequently of considerable social, political, and religious importance.
