Questions about this page
How many archaeological & historic sites are there in Thailand?
75 on this map, out of 14,002 worldwide. That is what Wikidata records for Thailand with coordinates, a photograph and a Wikipedia article — the real number on the ground is larger, and for some countries much larger.

Which is the oldest?
Wat Si Chum, dated to 1238. 5 of these 75 carry a founding date.
Where does this information come from?
Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
