INSET:—HINDU SIKHARA IN A SIAMESE TEMPLE ‘The story of the *Rāmāyaṇa* is illustrated on the walls of the royal temple at Bangkok.’ The stories of Jātakas were sculptured in Sukhodaya. Thus in religion, in literature, in art, in sculpture, in architecture Siam owes a lot to India. There are kings with Indian titles, ministers and officers bearing Indian names, and Indian customs and ceremonies practised in Siamese families.
