Nripatindravarman II (Khmer: ន្ឫបតីន្ទ្រវម៌្មទី២, Thai: นฤปตินทราทิตยวรมัน)

Biography[edit]

It is possible that Harshavarman III was succeeded by a king named Nripatindravarman who reigned in Angkor until 1113 and that Jayavarman VI never reigned there. He was possibly an elder brother of Vijayendralakshmi. In fact Suryavarman II claimed to have seized power from two kings; one was his uncle Dharanindravarman I of which there is no inscription in Angkor; the other can only be Nripatindravarman.[1]
