Sai Nam Peung

Sai Nam Peung (Thai: สายน้ำผึ้ง), the third sovereign of Xiān at Ayodhya, was a commoner elevated to the throne following a brief interregnum precipitated by the death of the preceding monarch, Phra Chao Luang, who died without a male heir. His reign, extending from 1111 to 1165 CE, was marked by the consolidation of political authority, the establishment of economic structures, and the cultivation of diplomatic relations with China and Đại Việt. However, the Ayutthaya Testimonies identifies Sai Nam Peung and his son not as rulers of Ayutthaya but as monarchs of Phraek Si Racha, reigning from 892 to 922 and from 922 to 957, respectively.

Sai Nam Peung was succeeded by his son, Dhammikaraja, whose reign included the establishment of a northern frontier at Phitsanulok and the delegation of authority over Phitsanulok and Mueang Phreak to the Pra Poa Noome Thele Seri lineage. Prince Uthong II, a member of this lineage, subsequently succeeded Dhammikaraja as monarch of Ayodhya in 1205 CE. Wat Phanan Choeng and Wat Mongkhon Bophit is believed to have been constructed during his reign.
