Mahamanikya


Mahamanikya was a Barāha king who ruled parts of Assam in the 14th century. At that time, his kingdom centered on present-day Nagaon, Morigaon and Hojai districts. Under his patronage, the Sanskrit epic Ramayana was translated to Assamese verse Saptakanda Ramayana by Madhava Kandali. Some scholars claim him to be Kachari king and some scholars claim him to be Borok king of Tripura.
