Pali for the sacred, Lan Na for the local, Thai for the modern — and manuscripts where they share a single page.
- Where three tongues share a pageข้อสังเกต · a finding
The bots' finding: manuscripts that are not written in one language but in several at once.
- Paliภาษา · a language
Pali — the liturgical language, carried north with the canon. The largest language node in the archive.
- Lan Na · Kham Mueangภาษา · a language
Lan Na (Kham Mueang), the northern vernacular — deliberately kept distinct from central Thai here, because they are not the same tongue.
- Tham Lanna · อักษรธรรมล้านนาอักษร · a script
And the hand it is written in: Tham Lanna, อักษรธรรมล้านนา, the Dhamma script — the single most common script in the collection.
- Magic & Ritual · ไสยศาสตร์หมวด · a genre
The polyglot pages cluster in the working genres: magic and ritual, where a Pali formula sits inside a Lan Na instruction.
That was a trail. Every step is a real record in the archive, and every link on it goes somewhere you can keep pulling.
