A part of the inscription said "Noblemen and ordinary people printed 11,108 Buddha's images with papers and soil. One Phra That , two...., two ivory Buddha's images, Silver and Gold Khan Mak, circled with colourful flags and musical instruments and drums. People were holding a bowl of Khao Tok (grilled rice),flowers, torches, candles, Chan incenses, fragrant oils, and paying tribute to the Buddha, His Sayings and Buddhist monks. "This is an evidence of how the Thais used perfumeries in their religious ceremonies. This ritual was spreading to the next kingdom of the Thai people, Ayutthaya.
