Nrpendradevi or Nṛpatendradevī (8th-century), was a queen regnant of Sambhupura Chenla in Cambodia.[1] She was also the queen of Rajendravarman I [fr], the king of Lower Chenla.
She was the daughter of Queen Indrani of Sambhupura and King Pushkaraksha [fr] (also known as Indraloka). She inherited the throne from her mother instead of her brother, prince Shambhuvarman [fr] (Rudravarman), who instead married their cousin, princess Narendradevi of Chenla.[1]
Queen Nrpendradevi married her cousin and nephew, her brother's son prince Rajendravarman I [fr] of Chenla, and became the mother of queen Jayendrabhā, who succeeded her on the throne.[1] Also, Mahipativarman was the son of Rajendravarman I and her.[1] Rajendravarman I, the ruler of Lower Chenla,[2] became King consort of Sambhupura by marrying her.[3] It seems that the kingdom of Sambhupura was Land Chenla and the kingdom of Vyadhapura was Water Chenla.[4]
