English summary on page 74 as follows: The author introduces gold lotuses found in Png Tuc (THailand) according to the report of G. Coedes (1927), in Dai Huu and Trung Quan (Quang Binh- Vietnam) according to report of L. Aurousseau (1926) and in Cuu Long delta according to the report of Dao Linh Con (1975). In the Cuu Long delta, there are hundreds of thin gold leaves and ten of gold lotus figures. Some of archaeologists state that the place where these gold leaves have been found is cremated grave. But according to the author, this is Simas. However, it is not correct to consider all places where gold leaves found cremated graves or Simas. It is necessary to consider particularly. The author states that Pong Tuc lotuses were from Funan, not from Champa as G. Coedes's opinion, but the one in Quang Binh (old Champa) was not from Funan, but Champa was independent cultural region from Funan which is based on the peculiar of the lotuses and small tortoises made of gold in Quang Binh (Nidland) and An Giang (south Vietnam).
