Khmer origin
I always wonder where the Khmers are originally from. I know for sure they are not natives of Cambodia. I read a book called China's Tibet and it mentioned a small history of the Mon-Khmer people being the indigenous of the Central Tibet and then later the Qiang (Tibetans) came and drove them to South East Asia and some got assimilated in the Tibetan population. I believe the Mon-Khmer people are from Tibet. I believe that the Khmer people are mix with maybe the malay people and austroloid people when they came to South East Asia.

I think he very free that's why day or night he always dreaming.
I think the Khmer origin shares the same with Lao people.... Thai and Vietnamese people looks different from the rest of ASEAN...with many of Thais that looks like Korean.... Khmer and Lao people seems originated from Malay (maritime Malaysia, Indonesia and Borneo, and the Southern Philippines)... Taiwanese aborigines might also influence ASEAN people, starting from Northern Philippines to Peninsular Malaysia.
If you want to know , go to buy Cambodian People at bookstore. The history is very important n no one can change or play with it because it dependents Nation. Many countries step into war because of unclear history. So please stop the presumption which leads to confusion ... It is my good will
^^unfortunately I don't but I was just curious. I read that book about Tibet and I stubbled upon that passage.ill keep this thread open if you have a source from a university
^^I don't know what your talking about Korean and thai look the same they look totally different. Mon-khmer are Asiatic people and Malay, phillpine, Indonesia are austronesian. They are different. The Mons in Burma and khmers are related.I think the Khmer origin shares the same with Lao people.... Thai and Vietnamese people looks different from the rest of ASEAN...with many of Thais that looks like Korean.... Khmer and Lao people seems originated from Malay (maritime Malaysia, Indonesia and Borneo, and the Southern Philippines)...

do you have some examples, I can't see any resemblance.with many of Thais that looks like Korean...
^^usually foreigners can't tell the difference between Asians but we Asians can tell the difference between other Asians.do you have some examples, I can't see any resemblance.
Totally agreed!^^usually foreigners can't tell the difference between Asians but we Asians can tell the difference between other Asians.
Khmer in Cambodia some time we can know He/She from which provinces by listen to their speaking.. But for foreigner maybe not know.
And face most the same story.... Anyways to me VN-Chinese I never confused at all even not hear their speaking.
Maybe true,,, but also maybe asia peoples are really from Africa while we are still a monkeys were not converted to human yet... right?
And maybe does monkey's brain is growing much better that's why we were travel and discovered new thing such as asia... right?
Same like USA the first who step on the moon... right?

The Origin of Khmers
Since prehistory, several people came to settle in Southeast Asia. Among these people, we distinguish mainly the population Australoïdes, the Austro-Asians, Melanesians and Indonesians. But in fact, the ancient Cambodians owe their origin to a mixture of the races Austro-Asians (Môns), Melanesians, Indonesians, (?) ********* and Khâms (Indo-Sythe) come from India or Cashmere.
Many great specialists of South-east Asia as Bernard Philippe Groslier or Mr. Marcel Talabot, supposes that the populations of group Môn-Khmer are downward of race Melanesians and Indonesians which came to settle throughout the rivers of Tonlé-Sap and Ménam. Another group of historians (researchers) such as Mr. Hendricks Kern, Mr. Adhemard Leclère, Mr. Pierre Gaurou and Mr. Etienne Aymonnier, think that the Môn-Khmers are immigrants come from India, as like the Mundas, who are them even pushed back by Dravidians and Aryans and which beat the indigenous population (Austronesian race). They would have come to settle, in the first time in Tibet, and thereafter, a part is descended to Southeast Asia (Môn-Khmers) and the other part in India (Mundas).
The opinions are shared besides on the remote origin of the Khmer people, certainly, but all agree for saying that the populations of group Môn-Khmer belong to the indigenous people of the Southeast Asia. Many material proofs make possible to say that the Môn-Khmers had already a quite elaborate civilization, before being indianized.
We find, notably, the utensils useful at Kbal Romeas (Kampot) and also in Mlou Prei and Samrong Sèn which goes back to 3420 before J.C. (the Neolithic time, the Palaeolithic time did not leave of trace) the men would have lived on pile, at least as of the time of Samrong Sèn (1280 front J.C.)
Before being indianized or aryanized at the first century of our era, these populations would have many traditions such as: believer of spirit or animism, practice the rites funerary (deaths are buried in the stones or the earthenware jars), live in the matriarchy society, have the large knowledge of the irrigation system, know how to do the culture of rice and domestication of animals, and speak a language infixed etc.
The indianized or aryanized Khmer kings never tried to remove old habits of these peoples, on the contrary, they improved them and marry them to the new elements Indian to found a powerful civilization, purely Khmer. The temples of the mountains are living testimonies of the old faith of the Khmer people.
