Uzana II of Pagan (Burmese: ဥဇနာ, in Burmese pronounced as /ʔṵzənà/; also Saw Mun Nit (စောမွန်နစ်); 1311–1368) was viceroy of Pagan (Bagan) from 1325 to 1364 under the suzerain of Pinya Kingdom, and from 1365 to 1368/69 under the Ava Kingdom. He was also the last of the Pagan dynasty which dated back at least to the mid-9th century. Though still styled as King of Pagan, Uzana's effective rule, like his father's and grandfather's, amounted to just the area around Pagan city. King Swa Saw Ke of Ava (r. 1367–1400) was a nephew of Uzana II.[1]
Uzana was a son of Saw Hnit, the vassal king of Pagan. Various royal chronicles report slightly different dates with respect to his reign, as seen in the table below. A contemporary inscription shows that he was in charge of Pagan by 1 September 1334.
