Folk memory is the sum of representations of memorable past events that members of any given community build together – often without even realizing it – and then pass down from generation to generation. Folk memory in Cambodia is closely tied to the land and the numerous cults Cambodians associate with it.This conference is part of the IRASEC conference series organized by Anne Yvonne Guillou, Anthropologist at CNRS / IRASEC.
