Of the sites located less than c.2 km from KSO, two seemed of particular interest. The first, known locally as Khok Din ('Earth Mound'), covering just 500 m2 at c.90 m from the hill, showed evidence of pre-protohistoric metallurgical activity (such as roughened bedrock, reduction of copper ore and casting of small tools...

In 1990 digging for the foundations of a Sala Thai-type masonry pavilion at the old wooden Buddhist temple in the village brought to light several human skeletons and pottery vases; this chance discovery was followed by a rescue excavation conducted by Surapol Natapintu, then director of the ‘Central Thailand Archaeology Project’ (Archaeology Division-Thai FAD). The excavation brought to light 32 graves - divided into three cemetery phases - accompanied by pottery...

Located on a river terrace cut by a palaeochannel [Fig. 4], in aerial photographs taken in 1945 and 1953 the site appeared clearly surrounded by a double moat and embankment, with an area of about 73-76 ha, of which today only traces remain [Fig. 5].
