Champasri
Champasri () was an ancient settlement located in Ku Santarat Subdistrict, Na Dun district, Maha Sarakham, northeastern Thailand. Found in the 7th century during the Dvaravati period and was abandoned around the 13th century due to the decline of the Angkor. It was repopulated by Lao people from Roi Et around the 19th century following the establishment of Maha Sarakham in 1865. Champasri was a supra-regional center of the Dvaravati civilization, together with Si Thep, Mueang Fa Daet Song Yang, Dong Mueang Aem, Non Mueang and others, but little known about its political structure. Each of these could have previously been the center of an ancient kingdom. In the case of Champasri, it was said to be the capital of the same named city-state.

Wen Dan
Wén Dān ( zh, 文單; ), proposed Bhavapura, was a group of ancient Mon political entities that existed around the 6th–10th centuries CE in the interior of mainland Southeast Asia scattered around the central Mekong Valley in the present-day northeast Thailand. It was mentioned in the Chinese annals of the Tang period (618-907 AD) as a dependency on the trans-Mekong trade route from the ancient city of Chiaochih (jiāo zhǐ 交趾; Giao chỉ; near the present-day Vinh of Vietnam) to India. It sent representatives to China in 717, 750, 753, 771, 779, and 799. Some scholars identify Wen Dan with Bhavapura and believe it was the origin of the united Chenla. However, this theory remains disputed, as some argue that Chenla probably formed in the southern Tonlé Sap Basin, rather than in Northeast Thailand or Southern Laos. Initially, Wen Dan was believed to be Vientiane, but according to the location given in the Chinese annals as well as archaeological evidence, it is supposed ...

Early History
Prehistory, also called pre-literary history, is the period of human history between the first known use of stone tools by hominins million years ago and the beginning of recorded history with the invention of writing systems. The use of symbols, marks, and images appears very early among humans, but the earliest known writing systems appeared years ago. It took thousands of years for writing systems to be widely adopted, with writing having spread to almost all cultures by the 19th century. The end of prehistory therefore came at different times in different places, and the term is less often used in discussing societies where prehistory ended relatively recently. It is based on an old conception of history that without written records there could be no history. The most common conception today is that history is based on evidence, however the concept of prehistory hasn't been completely discarded. In the early Bronze Age, Sumer in Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley Civilis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
