Yadanabon (Burmese: ရတနာပုံ, pronounced [jədənàbòʊɴ]) was the first chief queen consort of King Sithu I of Pagan Dynasty of Burma (Myanmar). The queen was the mother of Crown Prince Min Shin Saw. She was still alive in 1151/52 (513 ME)[1] when she successfully persuaded her husband to change the prison sentence for Min Shin Saw to an exile.[2] 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.[3]
