No place is really picked clean. You just need to dig a little deeper.

Yes, it has been picked clean, above ground, "but few excavations have been undertaken," as the article says.

Indiana Jones didn't pick the place clean all by himself? I do not understand.

Rival Cham civilization sites at My Son, west of Danang, Vietnam, circa 1050 CE. Both Champa and Khmer Ankor were also very heavily influenced by Indian cultures.

Research Work Sites

Recently, a team from the University of Sophia (Japan) uncovered 274 fragment pieces of sculptures of the Buddha while pursuing a research excavation in Banteay Kdei. This is a very important finding for archaeological research on Angkor. Most of the uncovered statues are sculpted from sandstone; a small number of the statues are made of metal. When the research is completed, these pieces of Buddha will be kept in the storerooms of Angkor Conservation.
