As already stated, the Ahoms had the historic sense very fully developed, and many of the priests and nobles maintained *Buranji*s, or chronicles, which were written up from time to time, and which contain a careful, reliable and continuous narrative of their rule. The following history of the Ahoms has been compiled in the main from the *Buranji*s which still survive.
