These cannons are believed to have come from France.

Cannons from 2.4 to 3m long, weighing 5 tons, date back about 250 years and are believed to have originated from France.

It took the Thai Army 2 weeks to excavate the cannons below the depth of about 2m.

According to experts, the number of these antiques can be a trophy of the British army after winning the French army and reselling it to the court of the Rattanakosin kingdom (Siam or Siam, the powerful kingdom of Thailand). Lan existed from 1782 - 1932).
