Min Maha (Burmese: မင်းမဟာ, [mɪ́ɴ məhà]) was governor of Prome (Pyay) from 1422 to 1429. He was a commander of the elephant corps in the Royal Ava Army before appointed to succeed his father-in-law Gov. Minye Kyawswa II of Prome.[note 1] In 1429, he was reappointed to be governor of Sagu by King Mohnyin Thado.[2]
Notes
- ↑ Chronicles are inconsistent with their own reporting. (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 54) says King Thihathu of Ava replaced Gov. Minye Kyawswa II of Prome with Min Maha in late 783 ME (c. March 1422). But later the Summary of the Rulers of Prome section (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 215) says Min Maha was appointed in 787 ME. It is another case of Burmese numerals ၃ (3) and ၇ (7) being mis-copied.
