Kyawswa II of Pinya or Kyawswa Nge (Burmese: ကျော်စွာငယ်, pronounced: [tɕɔ̀zwà ŋɛ̀]; 1328–1359) was king of Pinya from 1350 to 1359.[1] He died in December 1359, right at the beginning of major fresh Shan raids into Upper Burma (1359–1368) that would topple both Pinya Kingdom and Sagaing Kingdom by 1364.[4]
Lord of Four White Elephants
Kyawswa claimed the title Laysishin (meaning Lord of Four White Elephants) because he possessed four white elephants during his reign. White elephants were believed to represent the royal authority. His grandfather, Thihathu, was also known as Tasishin (Lord of White Elephant), and his father Kyawswa I was known as Ngarsishin (Lord of Five White Elephants).

Notes
- ↑ Per (Taw, Forchhammer 1899: 147), a Pagoda inscription at Pinya dated 729 ME (1367 CE) by Kyawswa's chief minister Maha Petteik says the king's remains were enshrined in a cave pagoda on Tuesday, 6th waning of Tagu 721 ME. The date should be 6th waning of Late Tagu 720 ME as there was no 6th waning of Tagu in 721 ME, which began on 3rd waxing of Kason. Likewise, year 720 ME had two 6th wanings of Tagu: 6th waning of (Early) Tagu 720 (30 March 1358) and 6th waning of Late Tagu (19 March 1359). The next 6th waning of Tagu fell in 722 ME.
