Thu Pabawadi (Template:Lang-my, 1861 – 1915), commonly known as Pyinzi Princess (Template:Lang-my) or Pyinzi Supaya (Template:Lang-my), was a high-ranking royal princess of the late Konbaung dynasty.[1]

Life

Pyinzi Supaya at age of 25

Pyinsi Supaya was born to King Mindon and his consort Magway Mibaya in 1861 at the Mandalay Palace. Her father gave her the title Taungdwingyaung. When Thado Minye, Prince of Pyinzi, was assassinated in the Myingun Myinkhondaing rebellion, she received the title of Pyinzi, and was known thereafter as Pyinzi Princess.[2]

When her sister, Mingin Supaya, was executed in 1883, the family and its servants were sent as slaves to Man Aung Yadana Wakhingone Pagoda. Later, at a sayadaw's request, Supayalat set them free, but they remained under house arrest until the abdication of King Thibaw in 1885.[3] Although they were not favored by Supayalat, Pabawadi remained on good terms with the family and attended the ear-boring ceremony of the daughters of King Thibaw and Queen Supayalat in Ratnagiri in 1910.

Pyinsi Supaya died on 18 May 1915 at the age of 54 and was buried in the Mandalay Palace enclosure (see Konbaung tombs).

At the Rajabiseka Muddha consecration of her father in 1874, Pyinsi Supaya, wearing ghanamattaka clothes, together with her seven sisters, poured a libation on the king's head and made speeches.
