One of Indravarman IV's inscriptions erected in the [[Po Inu Nagar]] temple dated to 1183 recounts how extravagant were the looting gold and silver treasures from the country of Kambu(ja) that were stacked on horse carts, carried to Champa, and were used to donate to the divine [[Po Inu Nagar]] by Queen Parameśvari, Queen Rāya, all of the king's Princess Bhägyavatī, Sumitrā, and Sudakṣiṇā, while the rest of the looted Khmer trophy were given to his people throughout the kingdom.<ref>{{citation|last=Golzio|first=Karl-Heinz|year=2004|title=Inscriptions of Campā based on the editions and translations of Abel Bergaigne, Étienne Aymonier, Louis Finot, Édouard Huber and other French scholars and of the work of R.

This event marked the final sublimation of the [[Mandala (political model)|mandala]] regime in what is now [[South Central Coast]] of modern [[Vietnam]]. Soon after, it was disrupted by the expansionist ambitions of the [[Thăng Long]] dynasties, followed by the [[Mongol invasion of Champa|Mongol invasion of the South]]. For [[Kambuja]], heavy losses in the central area forced them to abandon the [[Mekong Delta|lower Mekong region]], leaving this place deserted for several centuries until the [[Nguyễn lords]] came to reclaim it.

For centuries, the [[Central Highlands (Vietnam)|Midland Highlands]] with its rugged terrain and many ethnic groups with very different cultures has been a point of contention between [[Khmer Empire]] and [[Champa|Cham mandalas]] since the decline of [[Nokor Phnom]]. In order to survive, minorities must always find a way to please one of the two forces, or sometimes both. According to some reports of [[Henri Maspero]] and [[Alexandre Yersin]], ethnic minorities such as [[Raglai people|Raglai]], [[Churu people|Churu]], [[Jarai people|Jarai]], [[Mnong people|Mnong]], [[Bahnar people|Bahnar]], [[Rade people|Rhade]]... still keep legends about the merits of [[Po Klong Garai]], whom was deified in [[Central Highlands (Vietnam)|Montagnards]] area. The annual [[Mbang Katé|Katé festival]] in [[Ninh Thuận]] và [[Lâm Đồng]] is traditionally to celebrate the day [[Po Klong Garai]] led his army across [[Central Highlands (Vietnam)|Montagnards]] mountains to enter [[Tonlé Sap|Khmer land]].<ref>[https://khamphaninhthuan.com/truyen-thuyet-vua-po-klong-garai-kp/ Legend of the boy selling betel nut riding a white elephant in Ninhthuan]</ref> According to the epics (hmon), [[Raglai people|Raglai]], [[Bahnar people|Bahnar]] and [[Rade people|Rhade]] people also paid tribute [[elephant]]s and helped the armies of [[Po Klong Garai]] complete the expedition.

Battle of Tonlé Sap[2] (French: Bataille de Tonlé Sap) was a battle between Champa and Khmer Empire in 1177.

Prologue

The 12th century was a time of conflict and brutal power struggles. Under Suryavarman II (reigned 1113–1150) the Khmer kingdom united internally[3] and the largest temple of Angkor was built in a period of 37 years: Angkor Wat, dedicated to the god Vishnu. In the east, his campaigns against Champa, and Annam, were unsuccessful,[4] though he did sack Vijaya in 1145 and depose Jaya Indravarman III.[5] The Khmers occupied Vijaya until 1149, when they were driven out by Jaya Harivarman I.[6] Suryavarman II sent a mission to the Chola dynasty of south India and presented a precious stone to the Chola Emperor Kulothunga Chola I in 1114.[7][8]

Another period followed in which kings reigned briefly and were violently overthrown by their successors. Finally in 1177 the Angkor capital was raided and looted in a naval battle on the Tonlé Sap lake by a Cham fleet under Jaya Indravarman IV king of Champa.[1] Then Tribhuvanadityavarman king of Angkor was killed.[9][10]
