Khin Ma Hnaung

Khin Ma Hnaung (Burmese: ခင်မနှောင်း, [kʰɪ̀ɴ ma̰ n̥áʊɴ]) was a queen consort of King Raza II of Arakan from 1599 to 1612. The queen was a daughter of King Nanda of Toungoo Dynasty and his chief consort Hanthawaddy Mibaya.[1] She was taken to Mrauk-U, after her father surrendered to the joint forces of Raza II and Minye Thihathu II of Toungoo in 1599. At Mrauk-U, she was known as the Tanzaung Mibaya (တန်ဆောင်း မိဖုရား, "Queen of the Royal Hall").[2]

Ancestry

Khin Ma Hnaung was the fourth child of Nanda and his chief consort Hanthawaddy Mibaya. She was likely born in the early 1560s.[note 1]

Notes

  1. Chronicles have no record of hers or any other female children of Nanda. Her elder brother Mingyi Swa, the third child of her parents, was born on 27 November 1558 (Sunday, 2nd waning of Nadaw 920 ME) per (Ohn Shwe 1966: xxviii). Her younger brother Minye Kyawswa II of Ava, the sixth child, was born in November 1567 (Nadaw 929 ME) per (Zata 1960: 47). It means she was born sometime between late 1559 and 1565. Moreover, because her father was away on various military campaigns between February 1563 and August 1565, she and her younger sister Khin Pu were likely born in the early 1560s.
