From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jayavarman III was one of the kings of the Khmer empire. He was the son of Jayavarman II. The historical record of his time is fragmentary and little is known about this king except that he liked to hunt elephants. There is some debate over the years of his reign. However, some sources place his rule from 834 till 877.[1]
