Senbi Kiyamba (Old Manipuri: ꯁꯦꯟꯄꯤ ꯀꯤꯌꯥꯝꯄꯥ, romanized: Senpi Kiyampa) was a Meitei king of the Ningthouja dynasty of Ancient Kangleipak who ruled from 1467 CE to 1508 CE.[1] His birth name was Thangwai Ningthouba and succeeded his father Ningthoukhomba at the age of 24. His mother was Leima Linthoingambi.[2][3] After defeating the Kyangs, a Shan Kingdom principality, he came to be known as "Kiyamba" or "Kyamba".[4] He also defeated the Cachar kingdom in 1503 CE.[5]

During his reign in 1467, the Vishnu Temple was built for the first time in Manipur where it stands in the present-day Bishnupur district, Manipur.[6][7]

Relation with Pong and the worship of Vishnu

Kiyamba invaded the Kabaw Valley of the Shan kingdom with the Pong king, Choupha Khekhomba,[4] and a large area of the Kabaw Valley was given to Manipur. To celebrate their victory, Kiyamba gave his daughter to the Pong king for marriage,[8] and they exchanged gifts with each other. The Pong king gifted Kiyamba a statue of Pheiya (God) in which it was presented in Lamangdong, Manipur.[4] A Brahmin identified Pheiya as the Lord Vishnu and said that good fortune would come to the king and kingdom if rice boiled in cow's milk was offered to the deity.[9] Lamangdong was renamed "Vishnupur" for the worship of the God Vishnu.[4][7]
