Narathihapate

1238–1287 · 13th century · Also known as Tayokpyemin

Narathihapate was king of Pagan from 1256 to 1287. His refusal of the tribute demanded by the Mongol Yuan dynasty brought defeat at Ngasaunggyan in 1277 and the loss of the north in the 1280s. He fled to Lower Burma, earning the name Tayokpyemin, 'the king who fled from the Chinese', and was murdered by his son Thihathu at Prome in 1287, after which the kingdom broke apart.
