Chum Phae

Chum Phae (Thai: ชุมแพ) is a district (Amphoe) of Khon Kaen Province, northeastern Thailand.

History

The area has been occupied since prehistoric times. The ruins of the town Non Mueang date from the Dvaravati times.

The establishment of the district was announced in the royal gazette issued on August 3, 1943, originally comprising the tambon Chum Phae, Si Suk, Non Han and Khua Riang, which were later divided into 10 tambon.

In 1965 the northeast of the district was split off to form Si Chomphu district, in 1981 the west of the district formed the district Phu Pha Man.
