7. Why The Khmer ( Cambodian people) living in Tra Vinh?

As described in the book "Southern Khmer People, Vietnam" (Newspaper Publishing House, 2011), the forerunners of the Southern Khmer were an ancient group of inhabitants in Southeast Asia living in the Northeastern region of Cambodia and Laos at that time.

 

During the 5th and 6th centuries, this particular group of people founded a nation called Bhavapura, mentioned in an ancient Chinese book Chenla.

After the decline of the Oc Eo civilization and the progress of the sea at the end of the 7th century, the South, especially the Mekong Delta, became barren.

 

This desolation lasted for centuries. By the 12th century, however, the sea had receded, revealing nutrient-rich plateaus in regions such as Soc Trang, Tra Vinh, and Dong Thap Muoi.

These areas attracted Khmer residents who were escaping the brutal oppression of the Angkorian dynasty.
