Empress Thrimalö (in the Tibetan language, Khri-ma-lod) was an unofficial co-ruler of the Tibetan empire, 676-677 to 712 CE.
Thrimalö was married to emperor Mangsong Mangtsen (Trimang Löntsen' or Khri-mang-slon-rtsan). The emperor died in the winter of 676-677, and in the same year she gave birth to the emperor's son Tridu Songtsen (Khri 'dus-srong btsan or Khri-'dus-srong-rtsan).[1]
The Zhangzhung revolted early in her son's reign. She shared power with the Gar (Mgar) clan. When her son Tridu campaigned in the northeast 700-4 CE, she resumed her administrative regency at home.[2]
Thrimalö gave birth to Gyältsugru (Rgyal-gtsug-ru) in 704. Upon the death of Tridu Songtsen that year, Thrimalö ruled as regent again for his half-brother.[2] The following year the elder son of Tridu Songtsen, Lha Balpo (Lha Bal-pho) apparently contested the succession of his one-year-old brother, but was "deposed from the throne" at Pong Lag-rang.[2][3]
Thrimalö had arranged for a royal marriage of Gyältsugru to a Chinese princess. The Princess Jincheng (金成) (Tibetan: Kyimshang Kongjo) arrived in 710, but it is somewhat unclear whether she married the seven year old Gyältsugru[4] or the deposed Lha Balpo.[5]
Thrimalö died in 712. Gyältsugru was then officially enthroned with the royal name Tride Tsuktsän.[2]
