Khmer traditional wrestling
Khmer traditional wrestling (Khmer: បោកចំបាប់ - Baok Chambab) is a folk wrestling style from Cambodia. It has been practiced as far back as the Angkor period and is depicted on the bas-reliefs of certain temples. All of the techniques found in Khmer traditional wrestling are included in Bokator, the ancient Cambodian battlefield martial art.
