The 'Drinking of the Water of Allegiance' ceremony was a Siamese state festival derived from the Khmers who performed a similar ritual in the 10th/ 11th century CE. It was one of the most important state ceremonies in the Ayutthaya kingdom (1350 1767). During the Rattanakosin period (1767 1932) in Siam, the rite took place twice yearly: on the third day of the waxing of the fifth month (Chaitra), and on the 13th day of the waning of the 10th month (Bhadrapada), in the Chapel Royal in Bangkok.
