Immersed in the new millennium and its visible progress, it is easy to forget that Cambodia, like much of Asia is still very much an agricultural society. Complete with a calendar full of red letter days devoted to agricultural festivities, the countrys farming community is actively involved in the celebration of such festivities that date back centuries. One such anticipated event is of course the annual Royal Ploughing Ceremony which is incidentally one of the first agrarian festivals of the year.Finding its origins in the Sukhothai period back in the mid 1200s, this historic ceremony dubbed "Preah Reach Pithi Chrot Preah Neangkol" in Khmer is rooted in the Hindu beliefs of securing a good harvest.

Chess has always been a popular pastime, but it wasn't until the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries that the game really came into its own in worldwide popularity. This increased interest led to the demand for a more standardised chess set rather than the huge variety of very different and sometimes decorative pieces which were the norm from the fifteenth century onwards.These sets committed a multitude of sins against the game, not least of which was the variety of their designs - not being certain about which pieces were which in an opponents' chess set drastically altered the outcome of more than one game. There were also a lot of logistical issues with these pieces too: they were typically heavy and cumbersome and could easily tip over in play, which is again, something which could alter the outcome of a game - what if the king fell over, for example?Consequently, by the early nineteenth century, there was a clear need for a standardised chess set with pieces which everyone would recognise and was logistically sound for play. The solution was found by John Jaques of Jaques of London, a manufacturer of fine games and sports equipment, who created a set of pieces...more
