Across the valleys of the Brahmaputra lie the scattered remnants of a civilisation that once dominated the eastern corridors of India—the Ahom kingdom. In Search of the Ahom Kingdom follows the remarkable story of its founder, Sukaphaa, whose migration in 1228 CE laid the foundation of a dynasty that would endure for over six hundred years. This book uncovers a sweeping narrative of how the Ahoms built their state: their record-keeping traditions, governance, alliances and conflicts, and their remarkable ability to weave together diverse tribes and cultures into a resilient polity. From Charaideo’s moidams and pukhuris to Dimapur’s pillars and Majuli’s satras, through the serene, lush landscapes of Assam, the narrative blends history, travel and folklore to open a forgotten window into the Northeast’s past…into the world of the Ahoms.
