The manuscripts of the Nong Pa Fa Cave showcase two primary forms of writing: Dham Lao from Laos and Dham Lanna from northern Thailand. While these scripts exhibit notable similarities, especially in manuscripts from several centuries ago, they are often collectively referred to as Dham Phra Chao, or 'Scripts of the Buddha.' The historical timelines of the manuscripts indicate they were written between the years 931-989 Culla Era and include texts such as Pāli Mahāvagga and Ekanipata. Understanding these writings not only sheds light on the rich cultural interplay between Laos and Thailand but also emphasizes their shared spiritual heritage in the Buddhist tradition. Dhamma alphabets of Laos highlighted in these manuscripts underscore their importance in preserving Buddhist teachings in the region.
