Mahendradatta (961–1011 CE), also known as Gunapriya Dharmapatni, was the queen of Bali and wife of Udayana Warmadewa, also popularly known as King Udayana from Warmadewa dynasty.[1][2] She was also the mother of Javanese hero-king Airlangga.[3][4] Mahendradatta and Udayana co-ruled Bali, issuing inscriptions in both their names.[5] Her other younger sons are Marakata (who later became king of Bali after the death of Udayana) and Anak Wungçu (who ascended to the Balinese throne after the death of Marakata).
