Sri Indrawarman

Sri Indravarman was an 8th-century king of the Srivijaya Kingdom who sent three emissaries to the Chinese Tang dynasty, first in 702 CE, second in 716 CE, and third in 724 CE. His name was recorded in the Chinese sources as Che-li-t'o-lo-pa-mo. He was also recorded to have sent two letters to the Arabian Umayyad caliphs, first in c. 680 CE and second in 718 CE. Listed among the Srivijayan gifts to the Chinese emperor was a ts'engchi slave, presumably received from its Arabic connection.
