Location

The "Phra Chedi Sisuriyothai" is not "located outside Ayutthaya" but is situated at the banks of the Chao Phraya southwest of the Royal Palace, that is within the island. The "Queen Suriyothai Memorial Park" however is situated northwest of Ayutthaya, still northwest of Phu Khao Thong (14°23′03″N 100°31′33″E / 14.38417°N 100.52583°E / 14.38417; 100.52583). See photos (of the partly inundated park) and plan here or here. --hdamm 18:05, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


' Sri ' suriyothai = Pagoda

Suriyothai = Queen

Wrong:
"Phra Chedi Sisuriyothai" = Pagoda (Chedi)
"Somdet Phra Suriyothai" (Thai: สมเด็จพระสุริโยทัย)) = Queen

No, wrong: 'Sri' = Sri; an honorary preffix Sodacan (talk) 22:15, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

LGBT project

Since Suriyothai disguised herself as a man to enter the war and fight with her husband, she's of interest to the WikiProject LGBT studies. Please don't removed the project banner. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 15:59, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. Particularly in light of this snippet from the portal page:
  1. This project does not extend beyond the cultural, political and historical manifestation of LGBT and intersex identities, attractions, and relationships, and related societal reactions.
Is there really any LGBT studies interest here? She disguised herself as a man in order to enter battle; I'm not certain I can see how that relates to her identity, attractions, relationships, etc.

Having looked through the page history and seen no "interest" of any kind exhibited by the project in question, I'ma delete this thing. J.M. Archer (talk) 18:51, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
