Varman Dynasty or Lavo Dynasty (Khmer: រាជវង្សវរ្ម័ន; Romanised: Rhea vong sa Varaman) was an ancient Cambodian royal house which ruled the Khmer Empire (Khmer: ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា) and its predecessor states, Funan and Chenla. Its origin is traditionally traced from two legendary kings, Kambusvayambhuva (Khmer: កម្វុស្វយម្ភុវ), who married Mera (Khmer: មេរា), founding the Chenla kingdom, and Kaundinyavarmandeva (Khmer: កៅណ្ឌិន្យវរ្ម័នទេវ), who married Queen Soma (Khmer: សោមា), founding the Funan kingdom. The later Khmer kings claimed ancestry from both. Alt URL
