Biography
King Hiranyavarman was the father of King Dharanindravarman I (r. 1107–1113) and King Jayavarman VI (r. 1082-1107). He never claimed that his dynasty has any link to the King Suryavarman I’s dynasty nor to any other lines of Khmer kings. However, his great-grandson, Dharanindravarman II claimed the throne through the marriage with Sri Jayarajacudamani, granddaughter of King Suryavarman I.{{cite web |url=http://www.cambosastra.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Preah-Khan-Reach.pdf |title=Preah Khan Reach and The Genealogy of Khmer Kings |publisher=Cambosastra |author=Kenneth T.
