Prang VI

Pêk or Sixth P.rjang′ (Shinasthana: 辟, pêk or 六祖丙, rjok-tsa-p.rjang′; r. 295 – 265 BCE) was a ruler of Themiclesia in the Tsjinh state. P.rjang′ is thought to be one of the most influential rulers during the early Hexarchy and is the first Tsjinh ruler whose activities are recorded by contemporaries. Few facts about his life and reign are certain, but classical historians credit him with strengthening the Tsjinh polity and reforming the succession system. He is characterized by canonical historians as a "good" king that banished evil influences and maintained a just rule, but modern scholars have re-assessed these conclusions with excavated materials and records that have not been consulted.
