Years: 1051 - 1051
The southern Khmer, supported by Champa and led by either a Khmer vassal or a Cham chieftain, take advantage of the turmoil caused by the Cham strike against the Khmer empire to seize the empire’s southern portion.
The Khmer empire dispatches armies under their best generals, but meet no success until their most celebrated general decisively crushes the revolt in late 1051.
The rebel leader takes refuge in Champa, and the triumphant Khmers donate their war plunder to an Isvaran temple at Rajatirtha.
