Tannet of Pagan

Tannet ( Thannet, Burmese: တန် နက် spoken, [ tàɴ nɛʔ ]; * 878 in Bagan; † 934 just there) was from 906 until his death king of the dynasty of Bagan in Burma.

Burmese chronicles of that time indicate a reign Tannets 878-906, but let the data based on the government commencement of the founder of the Bagan Empire, his great-grandson Anawrahta, correct in the year 1044 906-934.

According to the legend Tannet was a son of King Pyinbya, who founded the city of Bagan. He ascended the throne at the age of 28 years and was a horse lover with a lot of experience. He was murdered by his groom Sale Ngahkwe, which then occupied the throne.
