✦ Dvaravati culture can be found in other northeastern provinces, Ancient name of Roi Et province is Sagate Nakhon (Thai: สาเกตนคร) has a number of pre-historic sites, Dvaravati sites with the Sema stones in Muang district, Wall and Moat, earthenware, stone beads, and Small Golden Buddha in Dvaravati Art.

 

✦ The language of the Dvaravati inscriptions, which are left in the remaining buildings, is Sanskrit and Pali. The Dvaravati Culture was following a Buddhist doctrine, although some Hindu influences were included. Buddhism came, of course, from India to Southeast Asia, and all the arts and architecture of the time had Indian roots. In the Dvaravati towns were also coins minted, a technique which also came from India to here. The concepts of the state and the political organization were certainly also of Indian origin; there is little doubt that we have it to do here with another Oriental despotism.
