Shwe Nan Shin (Template:Lang-my, pronounced [ʃwè náɴ ʃɪ̀ɴ]) was governor of Myinsaing from c. 1344 to c. 1390. He was the eldest sibling of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava. He became governor of Myinsaing c. 1344 during the Pinya period.[note 1] He likely died in or before 1390.[note 2]

Ancestry

Shwe Nan Shin was descended from the Pagan royalty from both sides, and was a grandnephew of King Thihathu of Pinya.

Notes

  1. ^ Chronicles (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 403) say that he was appointed governor in 704 ME (29 March 1342 to 28 March 1343) by King Uzana I of Pinya. But the Arakanese chronicle Rakhine Razawin Thit (Sandamala Linkara Vol. 1 1999: 181) says the family of Min Shin Saw left Launggyet for Pinya in 705 ME (29 March 1343 to 28 March 1344). According to a contemporary inscription, (Than Tun 1959: 124), Kyawswa I of Pinya took over the kingdom from then regent Sithu, also viceroy of Myinsaing.
  2. ^ Chronicles do not explicitly say when he died. (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 429) lists Thray Sithu, governor of Myinsaing, in the 1390−91 dry season campaign in the Forty Years' War. This means Shwe Nan Shin had most probably died by November 1390.
