<li><i>Phraratchaphongsawadan Chabap Phan Channumat (Choem)</i> ["Royal Chronicle: Version [from the Manuscripts of] Phan Channumat (Choem)"], aka <i>Chabap Choso Phan Nueng Roi Hasip Chet</i> ("Version of 1157 LE"), a royal chronicle of Siam found in a twenty-two volume manuscript obtained by the Wachirayan Royal Library in 2450 BE (1907/08 CE) from Phan Channumat (Choem), a Ministry of Interior official. This chronicle appears to be a revised version of an old royal chronicle. The revision was carried out in the time of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thonburi_Kingdom" class="extiw" title="w:Thonburi Kingdom">Thon Buri</a> but was left unfinished at the part of King Narai. In 1157 LE (2338 BE, 1795/96 CE), King <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rama_I" class="extiw" title="w:Rama I">Rama I</a> of Bangkok ordered a nobleman, Chaophraya Phiphitphichai, to resume the revision till its completion. For that reason, the contents of the chronicle are divided into two parts, of which the first is that revised in the time of Thon Buri (consisting of the events from the reign of King <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramathibodi_I" class="extiw" title="w:Ramathibodi I">U Thong</a> up to the reign of King <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narai" class="extiw" title="w:Narai">Narai</a>), and the second is that revised in the time of Bangkok (consisting of the events from the reign of King Narai up to the reign of King <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taksin" class="extiw" title="w:Taksin">Taksin</a>). The present book contains the events from the reign of King U Thong, the first king of Ayutthaya, up to the fall of Ayutthaya. — Reference: Natwipha Chalitanon.
