    What language is this?

    Recently bought at a car boot sale these prints, nothing expensive.

    But what language is this? Thai? They look like lists of animals

    Its Thai using ancient language and is supposed to bring power and protection and talks about the traits of each of the horological signs it represents (in Thai that is 'small snake' with 'big snake' being what the Chinese refer to as the Dragon).
