Angkor Wat, a Temple Built by Water
The 190m wide moat surrounding Angkor Wat is often mistaken for a defensive barrier against enemies, but its true purpose was different. It kept the sand underground consistently moist, preventing the temple from sinking. For 900 years, it wasn't stone, but water that supported this mountain of rock.

It's surprising to learn that the moat, which I believed was purely for defense, held hidden engineering wisdom. It's truly admirable how you've highlighted the foresight of our ancestors in supporting the ground's load, hmm!
