Military campaigns
Battle with Marings
Thangbi Lanthaba with his soldiers, attacked the Maring tribes. They captured Maring Manatol (the sword smith of their village), Thingkari who looked like a woman, and Haonu Leihoubi (the maiden), and Leihouba (husband of the maiden), and Khanglak Lanthouyang.[3][4]
Battle with Loipi tribes
Thangbi Lanthaba and his soldiers also attacked the Loipi tribes at Shekhu hill in the south and were victorious. They captured Tengkongbi and Marem Namngaba.[4]
Family
Thangbi Lanthaba was the son of the Meitei king Moiramba and the second grandson of Meitei king Chingthang Lanthaba. He was also the second cousin of Meitei king Telheiba and Tonaba. His mother was Nongbanlon Khumankhombi.[5]
Succession
After Thangbi Lanthaba died, Telheiba's descendants continued the royal lineage until Meidingu Tangjamba's death in 1545 CE.[6] Tangjamba's son was very young at that time[a] since he died at the age of 29, so Chalamba, the fifth great-grandson of Thangbi Lanthaba, ascended the throne instead which continued the royal lineage through his line.[7]
