I can't find a reliable online source to back this up (I think I read it in Welty's "The Thai & I") but I seem to recall that Thai culture predominantly dined in the Indian style using their hand before adopting fork and spoon.

The writing system was always based off of an Indian, Sanskrit base and the religion is the kind of heavily Hindu influenced Buddhism that prevailed across the North of the subcontinent up until the Muslim invasions.
