"Nor does it seem that Seller's "code" is confined to mythology. In
the jungles of Kampuchea the temple complex of Angkor looks as it could have
been purpose-built as a precessional metaphor. It has, for example,
five gates to each of which leads a road bridging the crocodile-infested
moat that surrounds the whole site. Each of these roads is bordered by
a row of gigantic stone figures, 108 per avenue, 54 on each side (540
statues in all) and each row carries a huge Naga serpent. Furthermore,
as Santillana and von Dechend point out in Hamlet's Mill, the
figures do not 'carry' the serpent but are shown to 'pull' it, which
indicates that these 540 statues are 'churning the Milky Ocean'. The
whole of Angkor 'thus turns out to be a colossal model set up with true
Hindu fantasy and incongruousness' to express the idea of precession."
