Description
In 1767 the Burmese Army invaded Ayutthaya (The capital of Siam) and destroyed the 14th century temple Wat Mahathat. The statues of Buddha where smashed to fragments and left scattered around the grounds. The area remained abandoned and overgrown until the 1950's when the Dept of Fine Art began restoration work by collecting as many of the fragments of each buddha as they could find and putting the pieces back in their original positions.
