Ma Mia: record, retelling or fiction?
Take the story of Chao Noi Sukkasem and Ma Mia apart into 12 pieces and sort each one: documented, from Phet Lanna (1964), added later, or still open. Then follow how the story grew from the Royal Gazette to the songs and the research, and see Chiang Mai and Moulmein on a map. Every item names its sources.
How to use it
Tab one: read each piece and tap the box you think fits to see the answer, the reason and the sources. Tab two: tap a version to see what it added; press "Compare" on two versions to set them side by side. Tab three: tap a city on the map, or a route researchers have proposed.
What it teaches
How to tell records of the time, books, songs and later research apart when reading a story about real people.
