Dhammaceti.—King of Pegu (A.C. 1460-91); a very enlightened monarch. He was first a monk; he then gave up his robes and became first the minister and later the son-in-law and successor of Queen Shin-san-bu. He sent a mission to Ceylon, where a body of Rāmañña monks were ordained at the Kalyāṇi-sīmā. These returned to Rāmañña and were known as the Sihalasaṅgha.¹
