who is princess suriratna??
Answers
Answer:
Heo Hwang-ok, also known as Suriratna[1][2] is a legendary queen mentioned in Samguk Yusa, a 13th-century Korean chronicle. According to Samguk Yusa she became the wife of King Suro of Geumgwan Gaya at the age of 16, after having arrived by boat from a distant kingdom called "Ayuta",[3] making her the first queen of Geumgwan Gaya. More than six million present day Koreans, especially from Gimhae Kim, Heo and Lee (Yi) clans, trace their lineage to the legendary queen as the direct descendants of Queen Heo Hwang-ok's 12 children with King Kim Suro.[4][5][6] Her native kingdom is believed to be located in Ayodhya,[7][8]an ancient Indian city. There is a tomb in Gimhae, Korea, that is believed to be hers,[9] and a memorial in Ayodhya in India.[10]
Explanation:
According to the legend, Princess Suriratna, also known as Heo Hwang-ok, went to Korea in 48 AD, some 2000 years ago, and started the Karak dynasty by marrying a local king.
Some Chinese-language texts claim that the then King of Ayodhya had a dream where God ordered him to send his 16-year-old daughter to South Korea to marry King Kim Suro.
