Notes
- While chronicles' first explicit mention of him as Uzana of Pagan (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 414) was only in 1380/81 when he was considered by the Ava court to be the vassal king of Arakan. His last mention in the war was in the 1409–10 campaign when he commanded a regiment in 1st Army, per (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 476–477).
