  • Myanmar Buddhism of the Pagan Period
    MYANMAR BUDDHISM OF THE PAGAN PERIOD (AD 1000-1300) BY WIN THAN TUN (MA, Mandalay University) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SOUTHEAST ASIAN STUDIES PROGRAMME NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2002 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to the people who have contributed to the successful completion of this thesis. 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photos and negatives), U Zin Moe (who assisted me in making a raw map of Pagan), Bob Hudson (who provided me with some unpublished data on the monuments of Pagan), and David Kyle Latinis for his kind suggestions on writing my early chapters.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.

Several iconic landmarks present in these cities hold historical value that tells a story of the rise and fall of the kingdom, the glory of a capital, and the spread of Theravada Buddhism within the nation. You will discover much in these cities; from temples erected thousands of years ago, a township with excavated archaeological sites, and the prominence of Myanmar’s changing capitals, this is a land with an exciting history to tell. You’ll be taken in wonder as you visit all of Myanmar’s ancient civilisations and learn how the origins and history that led to the developing nation we see today. 2 PYU CITIES The Pyu Cities comprise of Halin, Beikthano and Sri Kestra. These sites have been excavated and are part of the Pyu Kingdom, which stretched from Tagaung in the north to the Ayeyarwady River and to south of present-day Daw. History During 832CE, the Pyu kingdom was attacked by an army of Nanzhao who kidnapped 3,000 citizens and took them away. The remaining citizens left behind went on to blend with the rest of Bamar society, which settled along the upper Ayeyarwady banks by the end of 800CE. Highlights Sri Kestra was excavated in 1926 and there was relic chambers that were discovered to hold a twenty-page Buddhist manuscript and gilded Buddha images. There were also three pagodas: Payama, Payagyi and Bawbawgyi that points to Sri Kestra being a centre for early Buddhism in Myanmar.
