**Hiranyavarman** ([Khmer](/source/Khmer_language): ហិរណ្យវរ្ម័ន, [Thai](/source/Thai_language): หิรัณยวรมัน), the founder of the [Mahidharapura](/source/Mahidharapura) Dynasty, was a king from the Upper [Mun](/source/Mun_River) Valley near [Phimai](/source/Phimai) (northern region of [Phnom Dangrek](/source/D%C3%A2ngr%C3%AAk_Mountains)), a vassal state of [Khmer Empire](/source/Khmer_Empire).

## Biography

King Hiranyavarman was the father of King [Dharanindravarman I](/source/Dharanindravarman_I) (r. 1107–1113) and King [Jayavarman VI](/source/Jayavarman_VI) (r. 1082-1107). He never claimed that his dynasty has any link to the King [Suryavarman I](/source/Suryavarman_I)’s dynasty nor to any other lines of Khmer kings. However, his great-grandson, [Dharanindravarman II](/source/Dharanindravarman_II) claimed the throne through the marriage with [Sri Jayarajacudamani](/source/Sri_Jayarajacudamani), granddaughter of King Suryavarman I.[1]

He was named after [Hiranyavarman](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=H%C4%ABranyavarman&action=edit&redlink=1), a son of Somasaman and a daughter of King [Viravarman](/source/V%C4%ABravarman).[1]
