Dvaravati (English spelling)

Japanese: ドバーラバティ(英語表記)Dvaravati
Dvaravati (English spelling)
A Hmong kingdom located in the lower Menam River basin in Thailand. Much about its history is unclear, but it is believed to have arisen around the 7th century and disappeared in the 11th century when the Khmer people of the Angkor Dynasty advanced into this region. Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty, who traveled to India in the 7th century, recorded in his Records of the Western Regions of the Great Tang Dynasty that there was a country called Darahattei between the kingdom of Ishanapura in Cambodia and the kingdom of Sriksetra in Burma (now Myanmar). Darahattei was a Chinese transliteration of the Sanskrit word Dbhāravati.

タイのメナム川下流域にあったモン族の王国。歴史については不明な点が多いが,7世紀ころに興り,アンコール朝のクメール族がこの地方に進出した11世紀に消滅したと思われる。 7世紀にインドを旅行した唐の玄奘は,カンボジアのイシャーナプラという王国とビルマ(現ミャンマー)のシュリークセートラと称する王国との間に,堕羅鉢底(だらはつてい)という国があると《大唐西域記》に記録した。堕羅鉢底はサンスクリットのドバーラバティの中国語による音写であった。
