Saw Hnit

Saw Hnit (1283–1325) was viceroy of Pagan from 1297 to 1325 under the suzerainty of the Myinsaing kingdom. A son of King Kyawswa of Pagan, he was placed on the throne by the three Myinsaing brothers after they forced his father to abdicate in December 1297. Though styled king of Pagan, his authority reached only the lands around the city.

He gave his first audience on 8 May 1299, two days before the brothers executed Kyawswa. On his death in 1325 his son Uzana succeeded him.
