Ting Mong Giants Dance for Celebration of Khmer Festival

Ting Mong is a decoy or mannequin popular in Khmer folklore, traditionally with a head and no body, but more recently in the shape of a human, similar in its shape to the scarecrow, but different in its function as its purpose is not to scare crows but to fight away evil spirits and plagues. #khmerculture #khmertraditional #tingmong #folklore
