Does anybody know any websites that show some good techniques about these styles, or talks about them im detail? is the website https://www.muaythai.com a regular muay thais site or is it a traditional muay boran site?

I'm not sure what they are, but I'm positive it's not muay thai. it's some other muay - could be muay chaiya, muay chaad cheurk, muay boran.... there have been ALOT of muay in thailand martial history

here's some info about a few of the old styles:

its called mae mai the style on muaythai.com, which is the ancient art and not the modern art form of muay thai. Its more of a martial art.

O wow, i didint even realize that i posted this question, and now i just answereed it myself lol, how crazy is that, it means i have alot more knowledge now than i did when i started this thread in august of 04.

I would very much consider muay thai a martial art, as well as a martial sport. The older stuff wasn't "more of a martial art", it was merely more traditional.

for some reason, i really dont consider it a martial art, and thew reason why is because i trained in tkd for 4 yrs and i stopped it becasue it became boring to me and i ddint learn alot and i needed a hard core style, so i took up muay thai and i fell in love, now to me a martial art is having forms and doing like one step techniqques which i dont think are really effective on the street, muay thai to me is excellent, we make it reality, we dont try to block every punch that comers at us because w eknow it would b nearly impossible so i just dont liek to consider it a martial art. just my opiniopn

I can confirm what you saw at http://www.mastersken.com is Muay Boran. It is sometimes referred to as Muay Chaiya as well. Muay Boran was used in the old days to defend Siam (Thailand) against its invaders.
