	[Assam] origin of the name "Ahom" and the Buranjis
		I was taught in school that the word Buranji and the tradition of keeping Buranji came with the Ahoms and it is unique.
		I'd think the Buranjis would be available today in Xansipat or whatever other medium was used, for us to view.
		I have seen many Xansipat puthis, but I am yet to see a Buranji that lives upto its reputation of being the history of Ahom kings or the state.

		Each buranji possesses a distinctive literary style that only reinforces the belief that a school of historians from different places had pooled in their accounts.
		The buranjis do not mention the authors’ names nor are there references to the other chronicles.
		The manuscripts are also not dated, but their chronological arrangement provided a continuum of the historical events right from the events that forced prince Chow-Lung-Sui-Ka-Pha in the 13th century to leave his homeland in present-day Yunnan prefecture of China to Assam in North-eastern India to the last days of Ahom rule.

		The early history of Assam is obscure, although there are numerous references in the Mahabharata, the Puranas, the Tantras to a great kingdom known as Kamrup that encompassed the Brahmaputra Valley, Bhutan, Cooch Behar, and the Rangpur region in eastern Bengal.
		During the latter part of the sixteenth and much of the seventeenth centuries, the Ahom repulsed a succession of Mughal invasions of their territory from Bengal as they moved to annex the eastern portion of the powerful Koch kingdom (1682) and to consolidate their rule over the entire Brahmaputra Valley.
		The kingdom of the Ahom reached its height under Rudra Xingha (reign, 1696-1714), the renowed military strategist and patron of the buranji, or Ahom chronicles.

		What kinds of strategies are used to make Tai-Ahom the dominant identity movement in Upper Assam, while connections are simultaneously made with Thai interest groups to connect Tai-Ahom with transnational political and cultural interests?
		By adopting a multifaceted methodology combining the study of chronicles of Assam, called buranjis, which are today deemed the "documents" of Tai-Ahom history, along with fieldwork and oral history in Assam and Thailand, I investigate the construction, articulations and agendas of Tai-Ahom identity at many levels.
		Beginning in the thirteenth century buranji literature I investigate what Ahom means in premodern historical context.
