Exploring Sivasagar in Assam and the Ahom Kingdom | India's Forgotten Pyramids

Assam’s Ahom Dynasty was one of the longest living dynasties in India yet not much is known about them outside Assam. They ruled for almost 600 years and successfully overcame 17 attacks by the Mughals in Delhi.
When I heard about the Ahoms, a few questions came to my mind immediately. Where did they come from? How did they become so successful? And how after 600 years of rule, they suddenly disappeared - are there still any Ahom Royals around in Assam?
In today’s video, we’ll cover their first capital Charaideo, and some of their other cities like Garhgaon, Sibsagar (or Sivasagar) and Jorhat. In Charaideo they also built their scared pyramids to bury the dead called Maidan. In Sibsagar they created stunning architecture and finally their last capital was Jorhat.
My travel mate and the man behind the camera is my friend RJ. You can follow him here: / rjphotography_004
Here are some of the useful details for the trip:

The earliest reference to Habung comes in the 10th-century copper plate grant of Ratnapala of the Pala dynasty . when it was a province (visaya) of the Kamarupa Kingdom with Brahmin settlements. It is known that Sukaphaa, the Ahom king, spent a few years in Habung before finally settling down at Charaideo in 1253.

You said that wall are made from bricks... It is wrong walls are made from sticky rice ,egg, fish etc and many natual things are added to made that walls..

[@naomiphukon5663]

'Talatal Ghar' was supposed to be made as puzzle for saving them from enemies as told by my elders. The uniqueness about it: when you go downstairs you will feel that you are climbing up. In the structure unique things were used like sticky rice, duck egg and the egg shells. The reason of the four storeys were being blocked was, as long ago some couple went to visit that place and got lost on the lower section of the structure and never came out. They couldn't find the body so they covered the lower section of the structure and it is still not allowed to go down. I don't know about the lost couple story and the puzzle is true or not but the lower section is completely closed with concrete I saw it with my own eyes 15 years back. May be they must have opened it now for tourists. I'll check when I visit there next time. You also forgot to mention that 'Shiva dol' temple's top most dome is made of gold the other two temples also had the dome of gold which was stolen by the Brits. They also managed to bring down the Shiv dol dome which fell in the lake beside it however before that could be taken out we got our independence and they left it there later it was placed back on the top. I don't know how much truth is there in it; I was told by my cousins about this story who stays in Shivsagar. Shivsagar is now filled with illigal immigrant of Bangladesh so you'll see lots of mosques near the Shivadol and even the shopkeeps. Big request to all youtubers to show that in your blogs and appeal to government to look into it. They make fake IDs to reside there. I stopped going there from past 15 years as I felt that within few years I felt like I'm either in Bangladesh or Pakistan. I don't have any issue with religion but I can't stand these illigal immigrants, who have easily captured our lands.

Thank you very much for showing the monuments built by the Tai Ahom kings on your channel. Most people in India do not know about the Ahoms who defeated the Mughal army 17 times. The Government of India should include the Tai Ahom Empire in school, college and university textbooks so that everyone in India can learn about the Ahom rule.

I think Ahom Dynasty is coming to limelight in last few years outside Assam and it is getting much needed exposure to the rest of india.

By the way, the talatal ghar is not a palace. The 4 storeys that are underground lead to a bunch of many different tunnels. One of the many routes leads to the dikhow river. The other routes lead to nowhere. It was constructed so that the king and his family can safely escape in case of an invasion. The different routes are meant to confuse the enemy.

Kachari Kingdom was established in the 9th century.

The Dikhow river was said to be the boundary between the Kachari kingdom and the Ahom Kingdom.

If im not wrong 'shunga shaawl' is originally called 'khaulaam' by the Tai tribes of Arunachal. They even enjoy sticky rice wrapped in leaves thats almost always served alongwith boiled veggies. many traditional delicacies are also made of sticky rice,they cultivate them once every year which is their main crop.the Tai Ahoms and Tai khamtis are both Tais of the same lineage, maybe that explains the similarities of their cusines.

[@Archer89201]

Ahoms were slowly assimilated into the general population after the royal and noble families converted to Hinduism. Smaller related communities like Tai Khampti, Pakhes, Aitons, Siams etc have kept kept their traditions and languages somewhat

[@SiddharthaJoshiFilms]

That’s correct! Thanks for adding here 👍
