Flag of SIAM

Origin of the Flag of Siam


flag_siamese_shipThe national flag of Ancient Siam is unknown, however, there were some evidences that in the reign of King Narai (1590-1605) the red flag was hoisted to salute the French ship. The red flag was also used in the reign of King Boromokot (1732-1758) when Thai monks were sent to Sri Lanka. Thus, Prince Damrong Rajanub hab concluded that the red flag was the national flag of Siam in the ancient time. Moreover, a plain red flag were used when Siamese armies went into battle to distinguish them from opposing forces. This was also the case for trading boats when they went to other kingdoms; during the Ayutthaya period, for example a plain red flag was used by Siamese merchant boats.
