Suphannaphum dynasty (1370–1388)

Ayutthaya was closely connected to the neighboring city of Suphan Buri ruled by the Suphannaphum dynasty, another branch of the family of Ramathibodi I. They ruled only in Suphan Buri until Borommarachathirat I usurped Ramesuan in 1370 and unified the two states.[3]

The dynasty is named for the city, originally founded as Dvaravati Sri Suvarnabhumi (Template:Lang-th; RTGSThawarawadi Si Suwannaphum). Some historical scholars believe this etymology is evidence of Suphan Buri being the legendary Suvarnabhumi of Indian legend.[4]
