Sory for intruding...I just follow "Leeporter" from "AF" since that board got hi jacked by some spams in the past few days...
Anyhow...base on the obviously basic history's info...
Isn't Xien,Sien,Siem = Suphannabhumi(Suphanburi) and Lorhu= Lavo(Lawapura,Loburi)?
Since the merged of Sien+Lorhu = SienLorhu (Dvaravati Sri Ayuttaya)
What year does Sukhothai got absorbed into Ayuttaya???
Isn't it after the"SienLorhu" or "Dvaravadi Sri Ayuttya" already existed?
U (Tai)= cradle
Thong(Mon"Thor",Siamese Thong)= gold
U-Thong is actually an Austric-Tai name isn't it not?
Also Lavo should be the power-base of King U-Thong,don't you think, since it was a sanctuary for Rarmasuan,son of King U-thong, to seek refuge from his uncle. This very same lavo was actually lawapura of Dvaravadi B4 it was sack by the "proto-Angkorian"
I'm strongly believe "Siamese of Sri Ayuttaya" was the hybrid of "Austric-Tai" group....the amalgamation of Austro-Asiantic,Austronesian,Tai-Kradai group from Dvaravati,Angkor,ChiangSean and etc.
Especially the term "Shan" as used by Burmese doesn't include the "hybrid" group of Ayodhaya(Yodia)...the Siamese...
So "personally" I "do not" believe the term Xien,Sien,Siem,Siamese as called by our neighboring countries came from "Shan" nor "Sanskrit" Sayum meaning "black" rather it should be from "Suphan" meaning "gold".
And at the end of the days "we all" are both genetically and culturally "related" through out the Kingdom of Siam/Thailand...as one big family...
just my humble "logic" base on the "obvious" evidences anyhow...
