Template:Khuman Kingdom Template:Meitei peopleAdon Laiphangba (Script error: The function "langx" does not exist.) was a king of the Khuman dynasty of Ancient Kangleipak (early Manipur).[1][2] He reigned from 570 CE to 620 CE.[3]
He was a contemporary of King Ura Konthouba of the Ningthouja dynasty (567-657 CE).[3]
Reign[edit | edit source]
In 575 CE, Laiphangba built Mayang Imphal as the second capital of the kingdom besides the already established capital at Thoubal. This was the start of dual-capital system of the Khuman kingdom.[1][2]
During his time, the Khuman kingdom was extended westward which made the kingdom much more powerful.[1][2]
His son, Punshi Yumoiba further developed Mayang Imphal, which made it grow stronger than the capital at Thoubal.[1][2]
