Dvaravati (Hindi:द्वारवती) period lasted from around the 6th to the 11th century in what is now Thailand.Dvaravati refers to a culture, an art style, and a disparate conglomerate of principalities. Archaeological research over the past two decades or so has revealed the presence of a "proto-Dvaravati" period which spans the 4th-5th century, and perhaps earlier.
The term Dvaravati derives from coins which were inscribed in Sanskrit śrī dvāravatī. The Sanskrit word dvāravatī means "that which has gates" (from dvāra "door, gate, entrance"). Its name may derive from the city of Dvārakā in ancient India.
