During the past several decades Thai historians have been developing new perspectives, identifying new sources, and formulating new hypotheses concerning early Thai history. But, for the most part, the results of their researches have been available only in rather inaccessible articles, many of them written in Thai.
Charnvit Kasetsiri's book publication has indeed added value to Thai historiography. Here he suggests that the truly significant development of early Siamese history was not the transition from a pre-Thai political ethos to a specifically Thai ethos, and that therefore the crucial process was not the rise of the first distinctively Thai kingdom of Sukothai.
