The region of present-day northern Thailand has had an eventful and interesting history. To understand the history and culture of today's Thailand and the neighbouring regions of northern Thailand, an accurate knowledge of the history of northern Thailand is essential. The exploration and study of language and writing of this region is an area of research which may provide the basis for many other areas of history and social sciences. Northern Thailand has a very comprehensive, very well preserved and documented written culture. Stone inscriptions and inscriptions on temple murals, in addition to manuscripts on palm leaf and on local paper (Samut Khoy) are the most important surviving written sources. Looking at the starting point in terms of region, history and written sources, the corpus linguistic research as part of linguistics is a very good and proven method, to research and analyse the language of this region accurately.The Wat Nong Bua temple, the "Lotus Pond Monastery", dealt with in this project is located about 40 kilometres north of City of Nan. It was built in 1862 by the Tai Lue, who played a prominent role in the history of the Nan Valley region from the 19th century onwards. The temple is famous for its murals, which are similar in style to those of Wat Phumin, located in downtown Nan. The village around Nong Bua is still predominantly inhabited by the Tai Lue. The temple itself, with its distinctive murals and inscriptions, is a prime example of this culture.The lack of translation of these nearly 200 inscriptions of this temple into standard Thai and English, the non-existent linguistic analysis and visual documentation in the form of a scientific publication are reasons why the necessity is so great. The publications resulting from the project published in English lay important foundations for further research in an international research context. Research on medieval languages ​​and scripts of Southeast Asia is far from over, with the possible exception of ancient Khmer.The main goals are therefore to publish the inscriptions of the murals of Wat Nong Bua for the first time as a pictorial documented collection of the paintings together with the scientific translation of all inscriptions and thus to provide an essential basis for further research in various sciences.

今天的泰国北方地区有一个多事和有趣的历史。要了解今天的泰国和泰国北方邻近地区的历史和文化，对泰国北方历史的准确了解是必不可少的。对这一地区语言文字的探索和研究是一个可以为历史和社会科学的许多其他领域提供基础的研究领域。北方泰国有一个非常全面的，非常保存完好，并记录书面文化。石刻和寺庙壁画上的铭文，以及棕榈叶上和当地纸张（Samut霍伊）上的手稿是最重要的幸存书面来源。从地域、历史和书面资料的角度出发，语料库语言学研究作为语言学的一部分，是一种非常好的、行之有效的方法，可以准确地研究和分析该地区的语言。本项目涉及的Wat Nong Bua寺，即“莲花池寺”，位于楠市以北约40公里处。它建于1862年由Tai Lue，谁发挥了突出的作用，在历史上的南谷地区从19世纪世纪起。这座寺庙以其壁画而闻名，这些壁画与位于Nan市中心的Wat Phumin的壁画风格相似。Nong Bua周围的村庄仍然主要由Tai Lue人居住。寺庙本身，其独特的壁画和铭文，是这种文化的一个主要例子。缺乏翻译这座寺庙的近200个铭文成标准的泰语和英语，不存在的语言分析和视觉文件的形式，科学出版物的原因是如此之大的必要性。该项目以英文出版的出版物为在国际研究背景下进一步开展研究奠定了重要基础。中世纪语言研究 除了古代高棉语之外，东南亚的文字和文字的研究还远未结束，因此，主要目标是首次出版Wat Nong Bua壁画的铭文，作为绘画的图片记录集合以及所有铭文的科学翻译，从而为各种科学的进一步研究提供必要的基础。
