This beautiful and unusual sword is similar to the Royal gold sword unearthered during excavations of the crypts under Maha That and Ratchaburana Temples, Ayutthaya in 1956. In 1767 the Burmese raided the then Capital of Siam, Ayatthaya, plundering or destroying all precious artefacts and records, or so it was thought until the 1956 excavation. As well as the gold sword around 20 priceless gold treasures were uncovered, including minature gold pagodas, royal ornaments, regalia and utensils, gold Buddha images and gold votive tablets. Several highly revered Buddha relics were also discovered. These are now on display at the Chao Sam Phraya National Museum. Order No. VNK0103. |
