Yadanabon (Burmese: ရတနာပုံ, pronounced: [jədənàbòʊɴ]) was the first chief queen consort of King Sithu I of Pagan Dynasty of Burma (Myanmar). The queen was a daughter of Dhamma Kyin, a minister at King Kyansittha's court,[1] and was the mother of Crown Prince Min Shin Saw and King Narathu.[2] She was still alive in 1151/52 (513 ME)[3] when she successfully persuaded her husband to change the prison sentence for Min Shin Saw to an exile.[4] The queen apparently did not outlive her husband; according to the royal chronicles, she was succeeded as chief queen (Usaukpan) by Ti Lawka Sanda Dewi.[2]
