Shiva Simha Malla
Shiva Simha Malla was king of Kantipur (Kathmandu) in Nepal in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Around 1597 he brought the city of Lalitpur (Patan), long dominated by its own nobles, under his rule and placed it under his son Hariharasimha, whose descendants later ruled Lalitpur as an independent kingdom.
