Ny Wang
Ny Wang or Nü-wang was an ancient political entity mentioned in the Chinese records in the late 9th and 13th centuries, located in either the central Mekong valley of Laos and Thailand or northern Thailand. It was said to be ruled by the queen and possibly is of the Austric-speaking people as matriarchal regimes certainly existed. In the Chinese record Man-chu 蛮书 written by Fán chuò 樊绰, the kingdom was attacked by 20,000 Man people but won. The Man is non-Chinese peoples in southern China throughout history, which considered barbarian. In this case, probably was the troop of Nanzhao.
Ny Wang joined Lavo Kingdom in sending an embassy to the Yuan dynasty during the reign of Kublai Khan in 1289. This make Thai academics hypothesize that Ny Wang was possibly the Haripuñjaya kingdom, whose ruled by the Lavo's princess, Jamadevi, in the beginning of the establishment, whereas Gordon Luce speculates that Haripuñjaya was probably K'un-lun mentions in the Man-chu.
