May Hnin Thwe-Da
May Hnin Thwe-Da was the chief queen consort of King Wareru of Martaban. The queen was a daughter of King Ram Khamhaeng of Sukhothai. Circa 1281/82, during her father the king was away on a campaign, Princess Thwe-Da eloped with Wareru, a captain of royal palace guards. The couple fled to Wareru's native Tagaw Wun village, then part of the neighboring Pagan Kingdom.
Her husband later seized the local governorship of Martaban. Thwe-Da became the chief queen consort of Martaban in 1287 when her husband officially revolted against Pagan with her father's support. The rebellion was successful, and her husband went on to consolidate all three Mon-speaking regions of Lower Burma in the 1290s.
Thwe-Da and Wareru had at least one daughter, May Hnin Theindya, who later became a wife of Tarabya of Pegu.
