Lhachen Palgyigon

Lhachen Palgyigon (c. 930 – c. 960)[1] (Tibetan: དཔལ་གྱི་མགོན, Wylie: dpal gyi mgon) was the founding king of the Kingdom of Maryul, based in modern Ladakh.

Palgyigon is said to have extended the kingdom of his father to the "Kashmir pass" (Zoji La) in the northwest, along what were referred to as the "lowlands of Ngari" (mar-yul of mṅah‐ris).

The other two sons of Nyimagon, Trashigon and Detsukgon, also inherited the kingdoms of Guge‐Purang and Zanskar, respectively.

[2][3] The kingdom of Maryul lasted until 1842 when the Dogra general Zorawar Singh, having conquered it, made it part of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir.
