His Majestry King Sri Indraditya (also Sri Intraditya, Si Inthratit and other variations) is said to befounder of the Phra Ruang dynasty of the Sukhothai kingdom. He ruledbetween the years of 1238 and circa 1270 C.E.

Initially, he served as the governor of Bang Yang, a territory which belongedto the westernmost regions of the Khmer kingdom in that time, and now lies inthe northern-central region of Thailand. He assumed the name Khun Bang KlangThao, or simply Hao, during his time in this office. Together with theGovernor of Rad, Khun Pha Mueang, he declared independence of his territoryfrom Khmer control and its prohibitive taxes, a crucial motivating factor inthe revolt. Extensive Khmer preoccupation with great architectural worksweakened the ability and readiness of Khmer defenses, greatly aiding therebellion indirectly.

Khun Bang Klang Thao was then declared the king of the new nation, taking aname of Sanskrit origin, Sri Intraditya. His skill and bravery greatlyimpressed the people of the kingdom, who thusly conferred the title Phra Ruang(Glorious Prince). This surname was given to all kings of Sukhothai tofollow, giving rise to the first Thai dynasty, the Phra Ruang.

His Majestry King Sri Intraditya and his queen, Queen Nang Suang, had three sons. The eldest diedat a young age, the second was named Ban Mueang, and the third son defeated aKhmer prince in an encounter of mounted combat on elephants; he named thisyoungest son Ramkhamhaeng (Rama the Bold) in tribute to the feat.

His Majestry King Sri Intraditya died around 1270 C.E., and was succeeded by Ban Mueang.
