Kudamerta (Wijayarajasa)

Kudamerta, later known as Wijayarajasa, Bhre Wengker, was a noble of the Majapahit court in Java. After King Jayanegara died in 1328 he won a contest to marry the royal princesses and wed Dyah Wiyat, known as Rajadewi, younger sister of Queen Tribhuwana. A daughter of his by a concubine became the chief queen of Hayam Wuruk.

After Rajadewi died in the 1370s he proclaimed himself king at Pamotan as Bhatara Parameswara, heading the breakaway Eastern Court, and died in 1388. The Surawana temple was built around 1390 as his funerary monument.
