The first known king of Assam was Mahiranga Danava, the founder of the Danava dynasty. He ruled ancient Assam during the prehistoric era, particularly in the region that is today known as Pragjyotishpur (modern-day Guwahati). The Danava dynasty is believed to have been established by powerful indigenous chiefs long before recorded history. Mahiranga Danavas reign marks the earliest chapter of Assam rich and vibrant royal heritage.
