Min Hla Htut (my|မင်းလှထွတ်, in Burmese pronounced as /mɪ́ɴ l̥a̰ tʰʊʔ/; also known as Saw Min Phyu (စောမင်းဖြူ); b. 1388/89) was a princess of Ava. She was the only daughter of King Tarabya of Ava and Queen Min Hla Myat of Ava and sister of King Min Nyo of Ava.[3]
According to the Maha Yazawin chronicle, her first marriage was to Prince Thihathu, her first cousin six years her junior. The marriage, arranged by her uncle King Minkhaung I, soon ended in divorce. The king then married her off to Saw Shwe Khet.[4] However, the chronicle Yazawin Thit rejects that the marriage between Saw Min Htut and Thihathu ever took place, citing a 1415/16 stone inscription. The Hmannan Yazawin accepts the Yazawin Thits rejection.[2]
According to the inscription, Hla Htut married Saw Shwe Khet in 1403/04. They had their child, Shin Yun, . Shin Yun later became wife of Gov. Min Maha of Prome.[2]
Hla Htut was a granddaughter of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava, and ultimately descended from the Pagan royalty.
