Chankiri Tree (can be written ចន្ទគិរី or ចន្ទ៍គីរី among other ways) is a colloquial Cambodian name for Samanea saman, more commonly known in English as the Rain tree or Saman. It is a wide-canopied tree with a large symmetrical umbrella-shaped crown, that when blossomed is covered in clusters of pink-white flowers. The leaves fold in rainy weather and in the evenings, hence the names rain tree and five o'clock tree. This species of flowering tree in the Fabaceae family is native to Central and South America but has been widely introduced across the tropics, especially South and Southeast Asia.

| - El árbol Chankiri o “Árbol de la Muerte” fue un árbol, en los campos de la muerte camboyanos, contra el cual se estrellaba a los niños y a los bebés porque a sus padres se les acusaba de delitos contra los Jemeres Rojos. Se hacía así para que los niños "no tomaran venganza, al crecer, por las muertes de sus padres." Algunos soldados se reían al estrellar a los niños contra los árboles. (es)
- L'albero di Chankiri o albero delle uccisioni ((EN) Chankiri Tree o Killing Tree) è un albero situato in uno dei numerosi Killing Fields cambogiani del regime degli khmer rossi, contro il quale neonati e bambini venivano scaraventati con forza e uccisi, poiché i loro genitori e parenti erano stati accusati di aver tradito o cospirato contro gli khmer rossi. Ciò era fatto in modo che i bambini "non crescessero e si vendicassero della morte dei loro genitori". Alcuni soldati khmer rossi ridevano e si compiacevano mentre scaraventavano con violenza i bambini contro l'albero, poiché non ridendo e compiacendosi avrebbero mostrato di dispiacersi, e così facendo avrebbero messo a rischio le loro stesse vite.

- Ett dödsträd (Chankiriträd eller Killing Tree) var träd i Kambodjas dödsfält som barn och spädbarn krossades emot på grund av att deras föräldrar anklagats för brott mot Röda khmererna. Ett motiv var att på så sätt undvika att barnen, om de fick leva, annars skulle växa upp och söka hämnd för deras föräldrars död. (sv)

The leaves fold in rainy weather and in the evenings, hence the names rain tree and five o'clock tree. This species of flowering tree in the Fabaceae family is native to Central and South America but has been widely introduced across the tropics, especially South and Southeast Asia. The tree has numerous local names in its native range and is well represented in many languages. Chamri (ចាមរី) is the official Khmer name for the plant because the flowers from this tree resemble the beautiful long-haired tail of the chamri (known in English as yak). Ampil barang (French tamarind) is another colloquial name for it in Cambodia. (en)
