Min Hla Htut of Pyakaung (Burmese: ပြကောင်း မင်းသမီး မင်းလှထွတ်, pronounced: [mɪ́ɴ l̥a̰ tʰʊʔ]) was the chief queen of Viceroy Sithu Kyawhtin of Toungoo (r. 1470–1481). In her youth, the eldest daughter of Crown Prince Minyekyawswa and his chief queen Saw Min Hla was known as the Princess of Pyakaung. She was later married to Sithu Kyawhtin, a member of Ava royalty.[note 2]
The princess had two sons and a daughter: Min Sithu, Min Hla Nyet and Min Htwe.[1] In 1470, she and the family moved to Toungoo after her husband was appointed governor of the rebellion-prone vassal state of Ava. Her elder brother Minye Kyawhtin of Toungoo had raised a rebellion there from 1451 to 1459.[2] The future founders of Toungoo Dynasty descended from her. She was the maternal grandmother of King Mingyi Nyo, who broke away from Ava in 1510, and a maternal great-grandmother of King Tabinshwehti who founded the Toungoo Empire.
Notes
- ↑ (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 21): Her elder brother Minye Kyawhtin was born in 770 ME (28 March 1408 to 27 March 1409), meaning she could have been as early as 1409. She had two younger siblings, the last of whom was born in 778 ME (28 March 1416 to 28 March 1417) per (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 54).
- ↑ Both standard chronicles Maha Yazawin (Maha Yazawin Vol. 2 2006: ) and Hmannan Yazawin (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 54) in the chapter of Ava Kingdom say that Princess of Pyakaung, daughter of Minyekyawswa and Saw Min Hla married Sithu Kyawhtin of Toungoo. But in describing King Mingyi Nyo's ancestry, Maha Yazawin (Maha Yazawin Vol. 2 2006: 130) says Min Hla Htut was daughter of Pyakaung Mingyi. Hmannan (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 173) corrects it as she was the Princess of Pyakaung.
