Keo Kinal (by Daniel Robinson in Cambodia, Lonely Planet, p. 284)
Apsara danced and seven-headed nagas stood guard when the archaeologist Keo
Kinal was born, inside the Angkor Conservation compound in Siem Reap. The year
was 1973 and his father, the eminent archaeologist Pich Keo, was in charge of
Angkor Conservation and its huge collection of Angkorian statuary, the last
director before darkness descended.
Mr. Pich was one of only three Cambodian archaeologist to emerge alive from
the Khmer Rouge terror. 'He survived', say his son, 'because he didn't wear
glasses', and he managed to keep secret his identity as an intellectual and a
speaker of French - both tantamount to a death sentence under the Khmer Rouge -
while he worked like a coolie...to transport fish from the lake to provide for
the community. My mother, as other ladies, worked in the rice fields'. Kinal's
elder brother died of malnutrition and illness in 1976.
When I spoke with Kinal at Sambor Prei Kuk (Above), where he was overseeing
an excavation 3m under the floor of a pre-angkorian brick temple, he was, as
usual, accessorized with a dashing krama. His team had just uncovered a
delicately carved stone block and he was helping two men in hard hats clean it
off. As damp earth was brushed away, the outline of an elegant deity emerged.
Despite being born with a silver archaeologist's trowel in his mouth, Kinal
did not grown up dreaming of following in his father's muddy footsteps. 'In
reality', he says, 'I was not interested in archaeology at all. I wanted to
study in the faculty of Medicine but I failed the (admissions) exam. Then I
took the exam for literature - but failed. The next exam was for the faculty of
Economics. But still I fail! The fourth one was engineering. But again I fail -
because of money: I cannot pay" - under the table - 'to "pass" the exam. So my
father suggested that I apply for archaeology. That exam I could pass!'
From 1991 to 1996 Kinal studied in the Faculty of Archaeology at the Royal
University of Fine Arts and after graduation spent three months in Nara, Japan,
at the National Research Institute for Cultural Properties. 'That was my first
winter because in Cambodia, no winter!' he laughs. 'It was my first time seeing
snow! Before, I saw snow on the TV, finally I have a chance to play in snow. We
rode snow saucers and excavated under the snow' - just what you'd expect an
archaeologist to do. In 2003, Kinal returned to Japan to do a master's degree
at the prestigious Tokyo National University of the Arts.
Back in Cambodia, Kinal found himself lecturing on Western art history at
the Faculty of Archaeology. 'While I was a lecturer, I had the chance, with the
sponsorship of Unesco, to visit Rome for one month. I visited many, many
temples, including the Colosseum and, of course, the Pantheon. But the most
interesting for me were the catacombs.' He still can't get over the sheer size
of the Pantheon, nothing that its dome is 43m in diameter and 'the hole in the
top' - the oculus - is '9m in diameter - that is fantastic!'
Surprisingly, perhaps, there seem to have been points of contact between
Pantheon-era Rome and Funan-era Cambodia. 'From the 2nd century AD we have the
maritime trade from the Roman Empire, crossing the (Mekong Delta) port of Oc
Eo, to China', Kinal explains. As for the Roman coins unearthed at Oc Eo, which
is in the Mekong Delta about 70km south of Angkor Borei (p238): 'When merchants
stopped there probably they used (Rome) coins to do exchanged'. In ancient
Cambodia all the roads most certainly did not lead to Rome but, it seems, at
least one did. Kinal hopes to follow it someday soon back to Italy: 'I wish to
visit other places, especially Pompeii and Venice'. (Keo Kinal lives with his
wife, Mrs. Toun Sorphea, on the grounds of Angkor Conservation in Siem Reap and
works for the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts).
His last day: Keo Kinal has passed away on the ambulance along the National
Road N° 6, direction from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh. He died at the point of the
top of Stung district at the overnight of November 12th to 13th 2011 at 3h00
a.m. (local time).
