Nanphinakok Golthawathy

Nanphinakok Golthawathy (November 982-15 July 1054), known by her posthumous name Sri Bhonyendra, was a princess of the Kiangnu dynasty and queen consort of her cousin King Heyun.

Biography
Born Princess Fuang, the future queen was the second daughter of Prince Nak Darasi, son of King Bohuthewa, and Princess Karangade Mallaratna, daughter of Bohuthewa's brother Suchanda Falin. She married her cousin brother Heyun in 999 with her sister Sri Sumacha. With Heyun’s coronation in 1004, Nanphinakok Golthawathy was crowned queen consort, while Sri Sumacha became a princess consort. She didn’t bear any issue.

In 1009, Heyun was overthrown and executed by his brother Mansaw. As the former king’s wives, Nanphinakok Golthawathy and Sri Sumacha were also meant to be executed, but the king's mother, Queen Mother Pinthinah requested the king to stop executions towards his innocent sisters-in-law. For his mother’s sake, the king cancelled the death penalties for Queen Nanphinakok Golthawathy and Princess Sri Sumacha, but they were demanded to leave the palace, living a simple life in a village and forbidden to come back.

When Mansaw’s younger brother Tychen ascended the throne in 1020, Nanphinakok Golthawathy and Sri Sumacha were welcomed to come back to the court. They finally ended their tough lives.

Queen Nanphinakok Golthawathy passed away in 1054 during King Ang Sum II’s reign, at the age 71, with her posthumous name Sri Bhonyendra. She was buried in Konshin.
