Kunhsaw Kyaunghpyu ((ビルマ語:ကွမ်းဆော် ကြောင်းဖြူ) (:kʊ́ɴ sʰɔ̀ tɕáʊɴ bjù); c. 955–1048) was king of Pagan Dynasty of Burma (Myanmar) from 1001 to 1021. He was the father of Anawrahta, the founder of Pagan Empire. The principality of Pagan continued to gain strength during his reign. Pagan's surviving walls were most likely constructed during his reign.〔Aung-Thwin 2005: 38〕 Kunhsaw is part of the pantheon of Burmese nats (spirits) as Htihpyusaung Nat.〔Harvey 1925: 18–19〕 ==Brief== According to the Burmese chronicles, Kunhsaw Kyaunghpyu was a son of an early Pagan king Tannet, who was assassinated as his queen was enseint with Kunhsaw. However Tannet died in the early 10th century. It is more likely that he was a descendant of Tannet. He took over the Pagan throne from King Nyaung-u Sawrahan, and married three of Nyaung-u's chief queens, two of whom were pregnant and subsequently gave birth to Kyiso and Sokkate. Kunhsaw raised Sokkate and Kyiso as his own sons. When the two sons reached manhood, they forced Kunhsaw to abdicate the throne and become a monk. Kyiso took over as king.〔Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 225–227〕 He lost the throne in 1021 although various chronicles do not agree on the dates regarding his life and reign.〔Maha Yazawin Vol. 1 2006: 347〕 The oldest chronicle ''Zatadawbon Yazawin'' is considered to be the most accurate for the Pagan period.〔(Maha Yazawin 2006: 346–349): Among the four major chronicles, only ''Zatadawbon Yazawin's'' dates line up with Anawrahta's inscriptionally verified accession date of 1044 CE. (Aung-Thwin 2005: 121–123): In general, ''Zata'' is considered "the most accurate of all Burmese chronicles, particularly with regard to the best-known Pagan and Ava kings, many of whose dates have been corroborated by epigraphy."〕 The table below lists the dates given by four main chronicles, as well as ''Hmannan's'' dates when anchored by the Anawrahta's inscriptionally verified accession date of 1044.〔 The deposed king remained a monk for over two decades. Then in 1044, Kyiso' successor Sokkate married one of Kunhsaw's queens, mother of Anawrahta, greatly angering Anawrahta. Anawrahta challenged and killed Sokkate in single combat. Anwarahta offered the throne to Kunhsaw. But the former king refused, allowing Anawrahta to ascend the throne.〔Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 229-230〕 Kunhsaw died four years after his son Anawrahta ascended the throne c. 1048.〔Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 236〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kunhsaw Kyaunghpyu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
