Rudravarman (, ), was the last king of Funan.
== Biography == Rudravarman was the last king of Funan, as mentioned by the Chinese annals. He was the eldest son of Jayavarman Kaundinya and was born of a concubine. After the death of his father, he murdered the legitimate heir, his half-brother Gunavarman, and seized the throne in the year 514. Until at least 517 he was involved in a power struggle with his step mother, Queen Kulaprabhavati, who was supported by his opponents.
