Why on earth did man create such large enigmatic structures? Life defying sizes, absolutely huge, powerful, billions of engravings of small and big angelic and demonic figures on millions of sandstone bricks can be found at Angkor Wat. I am wondering what inspired humanity to create this beautiful structure?

Maybe it’s because people want good luck and to live a long life to enjoy worldly things. Maybe people create large things to make themselves insignificant and invisible? Is it for them to hide beneath? Why would man dedicate himself to create such large structure in the name of a God king with a body and spirit much like their own? What do you think?
