SIAMESErelated

SIAMESErelated is a label used in digital catalogs, databases, and content management systems to indicate material connected with Siamese topics. The term derives from Siam, the historical name of the kingdom that is present-day Thailand, and is used primarily in English-language sources. Content tagged SIAMESErelated may cover historical, cultural, linguistic, biological, and biographical subjects linked to Siam and Thai heritage, including the history of Siam (from early kingdoms through the modernization of the country and its 1939 name change to Thailand), the Thai language (often referred to in older texts as the Siamese language), Thai art and culture, and the lineage and breeding of the Siamese cat breed. It can also apply to individuals of Thai descent or people associated with the Siamese diaspora, as well as discussions of Siamese-related terms in historical texts.

In digital contexts, SIAMESErelated tags help curate cross-topic material that does not fit strictly into modern Thai or regional categories but still bears a clear connection to Siam. The term is more common in older or specialized archives and may be superseded by more precise tags such as Thai-related, Siamese history, Siamese cats, or Thai language when used in contemporary catalogs.
