Vikrāntavarman II (?–741 AD), was the seventh king of the Fourth dynasty of Champa, modern-day Central Vietnam, reigned from 686 to 741. He was the son of king Vikrantavarman I. He was identified as Jianduodamo (Chinese: 建多达摩, Middle Chinese: *kɨanh-tɑ-dɑt-mɑ) in the medieval Chinese annals of the New Book of Tang. In his kośa for the lingam of Vāmeśvara in Mỹ Sơn, Vikrantavarman II is venerated as lion among kings.[1][2]
An inscription on a stele dated 19 May 687 in Mỹ Sơn is attributed to his coronation. That same day he also installed a sheath and a crown for two of his beloved gods, Īśānesvara and Bhadreśvara, manifest in the earth in the form of lingas.[3][4]
