Phutthaisong

Phutthaisong stands on the southern Khorat Plateau at the site of an old town surrounded by earthen ramparts and two moats. Tradition places its establishment under King Narai of Ayutthaya, as a dependency of Nakhon Ratchasima. After some of its people moved to Buriram, the older town was abandoned. In 1799 a new Phutthaisong was established beside the old site, again under Nakhon Ratchasima, with a newly appointed governor.
