Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Sisophon was a changwat province of Thailand . In 1906 it was ceded to French Indochina . It is now part of Cambodia and known as Banteay Meanchey . During the 16th Century and beyond, Sisophon was known as Srey Saophoan meaning in Khmer Beautiful Lady and it was a small district, belonging in Battambang Province. Onward to the 17th century, the Siamese later known to the world as Thai, took over Battambang Province , Siem Reap Province in a successful military campaign. Battambang Province and Siem Reap province was renamed as Phra Dambang and Siam Nakorn respectfully. Therefore, Srey Saophoan was renamed as Srisophon in the Siamese Thai language.
