Ayutthaya Period, Phra Yodthong, 
18-19 century in Thai Buddhist calendar.
Phra Yodthong—the flagpole Buddha—is a Buddha statuette set on the top of a flagpole used during war, symbolizing the hope to return with victory and glory. Blessed by the royal court’s Brahmanic priests with the power of Konggrapan (invincibility), these Phra Yodthong were made in gold, silver, and other metals. The royalties used the gold Phra Yodthong as a form of talisman for protection while Generals, high commanders, and high-ranking officials would use their silver Phra Yodthong to set on top of their flagpoles during wars to ward off their enemies and to bring victory.
Made in the U-Thong period, this silver Phra Yodthong was likely the possession of a General or high-ranking commander. Preserved in excellent condition with visible traces of use, this Phra Yodthong was likely used during wars in the Ayutthaya period and survived to this modern day.
大城府 佛歷18-19世紀 旗杆佛
在泰國普遍流傳旗杆佛是有凱旋歸來或旗開得勝之意，而普遍藝術都是底部連帶一支插杆，而該尊是比較與眾不同。
這尊旗杆佛來自烏燙皇朝時期的製品，記載當年軍隊出兵之時，都會有祭師加入法術加持祝福，希望士兵們可以避開險境凱旋歸來，每一支旗頂上都會製作一尊佛放上，而不同法相或材質都會顯示當年的官銜。
當時記載黃金版本是來自皇室人員，純銀材質是來自將軍或指揮官，而這尊底部是法座形態，估計是來自將軍級的官銜。
