# Maha Sammata

> Mahāsammata ; also spelled Maha Samrat; lit. "the Great Elect"), also known as first Khattiya and Rāja, was the first farmer monarch of the world according to Buddhist tradition. The chronicles of Theravada Buddhist tradition such as Mahāvaṃsa and Maha Yazawin states that he was the founder of the Maha Sammatha Manu dynasty, to which the historical Buddha belonged. According to the Agganna Sutta, he was a rice farmer who was elected by the other farmers to rule them as per Dhamma. He was the first of the eleven world monarchs called Maha Sammata, each of whom founded the eleven dynasties that existed from the beginning to the day of the Buddha. The Burmese Thervada text The Great Chronicle of Buddhas mentioned that Mahasammata Raja was the founder Surya Vansha Kshatriya. His another name was Manu or Sun because his personality was similar to the sun. Pali canon described that Bodhisattva Sidatha Gotama claimed his ancestry from Mahasammata Raja, Addicca naman gotten, name jathiya, meaning in clan of Adicca and house of Shakyans.
