Kulamandan Khan(Nepali: कुलमण्डन खान) was the first k of Kaski district and ancestor of the great king Prithivi Narayan Shah of Nepal.
Kulamandan conquered Kaski Kingdom by killing Hindu women, children and Brahmins and received the title of "Shah". This Shah title is used by mainly Muslim Kings or Rulers. His son Yasho Brahma Shah succeeded him as the King of Lamjung and Kaski. His eldest son Narhari Shah became ruler of Lamjung while the second son ruled over Kaski. His youngest son, Dravya Shah ruled the Kingdom of Gorkha.
