Tarabya I or Tarabyagyi (Burmese: တရဖျားကြီး, pronounced [təja̰pʰjá dʑí]; c. 1299–1340) was the second king of Sagaing Kingdom from 1323 to 1336. He succeeded King Sawyun, his maternal half-brother, in May 1323 (Kason 385 ME). In 1336, he was brought put under arrest by his own son Shwetaungtet.[3] After Shwetaungtet himself was assassinated in 1340 by Chief Minister Nandapangyan, the captive king was also killed.[3]

Background

Tarabya was at least half-Shan, (and likely full Shan). His mother Yadanabon was an ethnic Shan. His father died soon after his birth. Tarabya was just over a year old when his mother remarried to Thihathu, and gave birth to Sawyun.[3]
