First of all, I wish to express my gratitude to the National University of Singapore which offered me a 3-year scholarship for this study. I wish to express my indebtedness to Professor Than Tun. Although I have never been his student, I was taught with his book on Old Myanmar (Khet-hoà: Mranmâ Râjawaà), and I learnt a lot from my discussions with him; and, therefore, I regard him as one of my teachers. I am also greatly indebted to my Sayas Dr. Myo Myint and Professor Han Tint, and friends U Ni Tut, U Yaw Han Tun and U Soe Kyaw Thu of Mandalay University for helping me with the sources I needed. I also owe my gratitude to U Win Maung (Tampavatî) (who let me use his collection of photos and negatives), U Zin Moe (who assisted me in making a raw map of Pagan), Bob Hudson (who provided me with some unpublished data on the monuments of Pagan), and David Kyle Latinis for his kind suggestions on writing my early chapters. I’m greatly indebted to Cho Cho (Centre for Advanced Studies in Architecture, NUS) for providing me with some of the drawings: figures 2, 22, 25, 26 and 38. -

All of the algae specimens were included in two divisions and two classes. Cyanophyceae were abundantly found all of study areas. Algae specimens and water samples were collected all of the study areas within the year 2016 to 2017. Oscillatoria and Phormidium were mostly observed in high temperature hot springs. According to water analysis results, station B and D in Hanlin were recorded to temperature variation between 50˚C to 52˚C. Stations A, C in Hanlin have 41˚C to 47˚C and station E in Hanlin has 39˚C. The physico-chemical parameter like pH, water temperature, total solid, total hardness, total alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, sulphate and chloride were analyzed in the laboratory and presented in this research. Among them, the amount of chloride was found to exceed the maximum permissible limit of WHO guideline valve (2000) in Hanlin hot springs.
