Pwint-Hla-Oo Thihapate (Burmese: ပွင့်လှဦး သီဟပတေ့, [pwìɰ̃ l̥a̰ ú θìha̰pətḛ]) was governor of Taungdwin from the 1310s to c. 1350s. He was the father of Ava-period general Theinkhathu Saw Hnaung, and a great-grandfather of Queen Shin Bo-Me of Ava.
Brief
According to the royal chronicles, Thihapate was governor of Taungdwin in 1317/18 when nearby Toungoo (Taungoo) revolted. It was during the Toungoo rebellion that King Thihathu of Pinya wedded Thihapate to his daughter Saw Pale to retain Thihapate's support.
According to the Maha Yazawin chronicle, the couple had three children: Theinkhathu Saw Hnaung, Theinkhathu the younger, and Min Ogga. However, the Hmannan Yazawin chronicle mentions only Saw Hnaung. Saw Hnaung later became governor of Sagu, and one of the leading generals in the service of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava. Queen Shin Bo-Me of Ava was a great-granddaughter of Thihapate I of Taungdwin.
It is unclear as to when he died. The next mention of the governor of Taungdwin in the chronicles is in 1364 when Thihapate II of Taungdwin was one of the many southern Pinya governors that had refused to submit to the new king Thado Minbya. Furthermore, Thihapate II may not have been a son of Thihapate I of Taungdwin since Thihapate II's father according to an early 15th century fresco writing by Thihapate II's daughter Queen Shin Myat Hla of Ava was Thray Sithu, not Thihapate.
