Death is considered a transition from one life to the next in Cambodian customs.
Do you know: The teeth or parts of bone of the deceased are often worn as amulets on chains.
When a person dies, in Cambodia the family of the deceased puts a white flag in front of their house. The flag is known as a White crocodile flag. The immediate members of family including children usually shave their heads and dress in white. If a Cambodian Buddhist passes, then his body is cremated and the ashes are kept in a stupa in a temple.
