21. The trappings of political power in Funan were formerly believed to be of Indian import. While evidence does exist that the techniques of Indian administration were shaping Cambodian polities from the earliest dates found in the historical record - a Chinese mission to Funan sometime between 245 and 250 A.D. reported that Cambodian writing resembled an Indian script, for example (Pelliot 1903, p. 254) - these Indian influences in all likelihood did not result in the "extirpation of local genius" (Mabbett 1977: 161). The use of the term "god-king": (devaraja) to denote a belief in the absolute political and cosmological power of early Khmer rulers has also undergone serious revisions, the term may be simply a Sanskrit translation of a Khmer term for a local protective deity (Vickery 1996: 393). It can now be reasonably asserted that the Khmer developed indigenous beliefs in the nature of authority and its relationship to Khmer political identity.
