Details
Ketumāla (Thai: เกตุมาลา, RTGS: Ketmala) is presented in the Chronicle of Padumasūriyavaṁśa as a mythical 8th-century Dvaravati monarch whose biography is closely connected to that of Padumasūriyavaṁśa, who is described in the source as his adopted son and the inaugural ruler of the Siamese polity. According to this tradition, Ketumala was the son of Devavadī (Thai: เทพวดี), a queen consort of Gomerāja (Thai: โกเมราช), sovereign of Pranagara Khemarājadhānī (Thai: พระนครเขมราชธานี). Following a prophecy foretelling misfortune, Devavadī and her infant son were compelled to depart from the royal court and subsequently established their residence upon the mound of Khok Thalok (Thai: โคกทลอก) near Dong Phaya Fai Mountains. There, they asserted local authority, and the population of this nascent polity is said to have been composed chiefly of migrants from Pranagara Khemarājadhānī. Although Gomerāja repeatedly entreated Devavadī and Ketumala to return to the royal center, Ketumala consistently refused. Consequently, Gomerāja authorized his son to administer the region under the regnal title Śrī Ketumāla Mahākṣatriyaḥ (Thai: พระเจ้าเกตุมาลามหากษัตริย์) and named the seat city as Indaprasthanagara (Thai: อินทปรัษฐ์นคร), while Devavadī returned to Khemarājadhānī to rejoin her husband.
