Charaideo Sibsagar

 

Charaideo happens to be the foremost capital of the Ahom kingdom, established by the first Ahom king, Chao Lung Siu-Ka-Pha, in 1228. The site is located about 30 kilometres from Sivasagar town. The capital of the Ahom dynasty kept on moving several times but this place remained a symbolic centre for the Ahom dynasty. There are several burial grounds of Ahom royal family and it is also the place of ancestral gods of the Ahoms. The burials are shaped as hillocks that resemble the Pyramids of Egypt
