Tridu Songtsen
Tridu Songtsen was emperor of Tibet from 676 to 704. Coming to the throne as an infant, he grew up under the domination of the Gar clan, which he destroyed in 698 and 699, restoring royal power. He fought the Tang on several fronts and campaigned to the south-east, where he died in 704. His mother Thrimalö then governed for his infant son Me Agtsom.
