snoop1130 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Located 60 kilometres north of Bangkok in Pathum Thani province, the Central Storage of National Museums (CSNM) is a haven for archaeologists, researchers, scholars, and art enthusiasts. Spanning 300,000 square metres across four floors, this state-of-the-art museum repository, a study collection, is the new home for more than 100,000 artefacts and historical items. These treasures range from prehistoric red-painted pottery of Ban Chiang to a sixth-century inscription from Sri Thep and a Siam Coat of Arms crafted from hardwood in the twentieth century. Every shelf and cabinet in the Central Storage of National Museums holds stories of human endeavours, spanning time, geography, and cultures within Thailand and beyond. Now, these contents are conveniently accessible for study and research. Caption: Historical stone sculptures stand in rows at the Central Storage of National Museums.

RandolphGB Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Most of the earlier items are from the Khmer empire, so there's a reasonable case that they should be sent to Cambodia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
