This colored plan of Angkor Wat with Japanese annotations has been attributed to Shimano Kenryo, a Japanese interpreter visiting the court of King Satha during the brief ​“revival” period of Angkor circa 1632. A Japanese scholar, Prof. Ishiwara, believes that Shimano Kenryo was probably an alias, and that Morimoto Kazufusa was most possibly the author of the map.
