According to inscription on the stele of Sdok Kok Thom, Indrapura (Khmer: ឥន្ទ្របុរៈ) or Amarendrapura (Khmer: អមរិន្ទ្របុរៈ) was the first capital of Jayavarman II reign about 781, before the foundation of Khmer Empire in 802.

Location

George Coedes and Claude Jacques identified it with Banteay Prei Nokor,[1]: 98  near Kompong Cham,[2] Cambodia, while Michael Vickery assumes it was closer to Kompong Thom.[3] Some scholars have proposed Ak Yum as the center of Amarendrapura. [4]
