This village area was thought to be the site of Vyadhapura, the last capital of the Funan King Rudravarman in the sixth century. The Lower Mekong Archaeological Project (LOMAP), which is a result of the combined effort of the University of Hawaii, the East-West Center and the Royal University of Fine Arts, is working hard to unearth evidence of much earlier occupation of the area. Excavations are taking place in people's backyards and in orchards in and around the town of Angkor Borei.
