A History of Assam c16.22

c16.22

Up to 1603 A.D. nothing more is known of Kachāri affairs, but it may be gathered that, during this period, the Kachāri kings held the greater part of the Nowgong district and the North Cachar Hills and gradually extended their rule into the plains of Cachar. The previous history of this tract is wrapped in oblivion, but there is a tradition that it was formerly included in the Tippera kingdom, and was presented by a king of that country to a Kachāri Raja who had married his daughter, about three hundred years ago.
