Saw Taw Oo (Burmese: စောတော်ဦး, pronounced [sɔ́ dɔ̀ ʔú]) was a queen consort of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava. She was the daughter of King Thihapate of Sagaing, a granddaughter of King Saw Yun, the founder of Sagaing, and a half-sister of King Thado Minbya, the founder of Ava. She was raised to be a queen of Swa Saw Ke with the title of Queen of the Central Palace, succeeding her half-sister Saw Omma. The queen was also given Pagan (Bagan) in fief.[2]
According to a contemporary inscription, the queen donated a monastery in Wetkyi-In, and dedicated paddy farmland to the monastery in October 1396.[a]

Notes
- ^ The dedication ceremony was held on Monday, the 5th waxing of Tazaungmon 758 ME.[3] The date can be conventionally translated as Thursday, 5 October 1396. If it was indeed on a Monday, the date may have been the 2nd waxing of Tazaungmon 758 ME (Monday, 2 October 1396). The Burmese numerals ၂ (2) and ၅ (5) have similar shapes, and can be misread/miscopied.
