description: "Nyaung-u Sawrahan was king of the Pagan dynasty of Burma (Myanmar) from c. 956 to 1001. Although he is remembered as the Cucumber King in the Burmese chronicles based on a legend, Sawrahan is the earliest king of Pagan whose existence has been verified by inscriptional evidence. According to scholarship, it was during Sawrahan's reign that Pagan, then one of several competing city-states in Upper Burma, \"grew in authority and grandeur\". The creation of Burmese alphabet as well as the fortification of Pagan may have begun in his reign."
