Can someone confirm this? The article says he died on "Sunday, the fifth day of the waxing moon in the eighth month of the 910th year of the Minor Era, corresponding to 10 June 1548". According to (Eade 1989: 130),

• Sunday, 5th waxing of the Eighth month (Ashadha) of 910 CS actually corresponds to Sunday, 3 March 1549!
• Assuming that 910 CS is a typo,

• 5th waxing of the Eighth month (Ashadha) of 909 CS = Wednesday, 14 March 1548
• 5th waning of the Eighth month (Ashadha) of 909 CS = Thursday, 29 March 1548
• 5th waxing of the Eighth month (Ashadha) of 908 CS = Tuesday, 15 March 1547

• None of them fell on a Sunday. Apparently, someone has made an adjustment in translation because 10 June 1548 is equivalent to Sunday, 5th waxing of the 11th month (Asvina) of 910 CS.

Does the cited source say the 8th month or the 11th month? I also wonder if the Thai spellings for 8th and 11th months are similar. Hybernator (talk) 17:24, 31 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

I did a bit more digging:

• 910 CS itself is likely a correction by a later source. Per (Harvey 1925: 343), the Siamese chronicles give either 1529 or 1547 as the accession date of Maha Chakkraphat. Of course, a new contemporary evidence may have been discovered since 1925, and that new source may give the accession date as 5th waxing of the Eighth month of 910 CS. Otherwise, 910 CS is a correction (probably of Luang Prasert's date).
• 5th waxing of the Eighth month (Ashadha) of 907 CS (7 March 1546) does fall on a Sunday.

If someone has access to the Luang Prasert chronicle in Thai, please find out what it says. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 19:07, 31 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
