history. <strong>The</strong> document to which I refer is Inscription 45 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Thai<br />

corpus.t07 Its date is equivalent to A.D. 1392, just a few years after <strong>the</strong><br />

end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reign <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> king responsible for <strong>the</strong> Wat Phra Yu'n inscription,<br />

and it contains two lists <strong>of</strong> ancestor spirits, one <strong>of</strong> which Griswold and<br />

Prasert interpreted as former kings <strong>of</strong> Nan and <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r former kings<br />

and related royalty <strong>of</strong> Sukhothai.<br />

This latter list, besides <strong>the</strong> expected names, includes o<strong>the</strong>rs previously<br />

unknown, one <strong>of</strong> whom, nua naf!1 thaf!1, G~iswold and Prasert felt<br />

should be added to <strong>the</strong> list <strong>of</strong> Sukhothai kings. I present below <strong>the</strong><br />

names <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sukhothai kings as known from o<strong>the</strong>r inscriptions, lOS <strong>the</strong><br />

list <strong>of</strong> Inscription 45, a list <strong>of</strong> Sukhothai kings found in <strong>the</strong> version <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Phra Sihing story included in Jinaka lamali, and <strong>the</strong> names <strong>of</strong> certain<br />

Chiang Mai rulers as tbey are given both in Jinakalamali and <strong>the</strong> Chiang<br />
