"In the year 1047...the son of King Chekuttra ascended the throne of Chiang Mai."
Thus, he is known as Cheputarai, son of King Chekuttra, and is widely recognized through studies of the Chiang Mai Chronicle[3][4] or later sources that cite it, such as the Yonok Chronicle[5][6].
However, the identity of Cheputarai contradicts Burmese records[7][8] of Chiang Mai’s rulers. Additionally, debates regarding the identity ofthe Ruler of Phrae and the ViceroyUengsae have led to speculation that records of Cheputarai may have been distorted from those ofMinye Kyawhtin of Burma[7]. He was the son ofMinye Aungdin (Burmese:မင်းရဲအောင်တင်), the Prince of Siputtara[9][10].
