Myo Sit (Burmese: မျိုးစစ်) was a Burmese prince of the Konbaung dynasty, known as the third Pinya Prince among five who held the Pinya title during the late 18th century.[1] He was a son of King Singu and Middle Palace Queen Thiri Maha Nanda Devi (birth name: Shin Min Thar), and a cousin of the second Pinya Prince, Maung Naga.[2] Myo Sit held the Pinya title during his father's reign and had one daughter and one son, though the daughter died in childhood. In 1143 ME (1781 CE), during the reign of his grandfather, King Hsinbyushin, both Myo Sit and his father were deposed and executed.[3][4]
