Phra Siam Devadhiraj (Thai:พระสยามเทวาธิราช,RTGS: Phra Sayam Thewathirat) is aguardian deity personifying supernatural protection over the country ofThailand. The deity (deva, asanskrit origin word, sometimes translated as "god" or "angel") is represented by anidol enshrined in thePhaisan Thaksin Throne Hall of theGrand Palace. The statue, 8 in (200 mm) tall and made of solid gold, was commissioned by KingMongkut (Rama IV), probably around the years 1859–1860.[1] It shows thedeva in royal dress, holding a sword in the right hand and with the left hand at chest level in a blessing posture. The deity is worshipped in an annual private royal ceremony on the first waxing moon of the fifth Thai lunar month, which marks the traditional New Year in theThai lunar calendar.[2][3]
