Jayavarman IX
Jayavarman IX, also known as Jayavarmadiparamesvara was sovereign of the Khmer Empire from 1327 to 1336.
Jayavarman IX was like his father Indrajayavarman a convinced Shivaite. According to the Cambodian Royal Chronicle, which named him "Sihanouk," he was assassinated in 1336 by the head of the royal gardens Neay Trasac Paem Chay, 1 who married his daughter and took his place on the throne. This narrative is probably legendary.
This sovereign is the last king mentioned by inscriptions on the monuments. The last Sanskrit inscription of Cambodia dates from the reign of Jayavarman Parameshwara
