Mural Drawing at Siam Wat '' Temple '' http://www.thailandtatler.com/tag/mahosadha-jataka/ Foreign Mercenaries Ekatotsarot's reign saw the influx of foreigners into Siam as traders and mercenaries. Ekatotsarot established Krom Asas (volunteered regiments) of foreign soldiers, for example; Krom Asa Mon, Krom Asa Cham '' Champa '', Krom Asa Yipun (Japanese mercenaries), and Krom Asa Maen Puen (Arquebusiers - the Portuguese and Dutch). Ekatotsarot had a close relations with the Tokugawa shogunate under Tokugawa Ieyasu who commissioned Red Seal Ships to Siam. Around this time the Siamese metallurgists learned the arts of forging mortars from the Westerners and combined with traditional methods giving rise to the praised Siamese mortars known for their qualities. |
