Early Period of Kamarupa
The Early Period of Kamarupa stretches from early times to the 7th century A.D.
==Genealogy==
In the Nidhanpur plate of King Bhaskar Varman〔''Epigraphia Indica'', vol XII〕 the genealogy of the kings mentioned therein is traced from Naraka, his son Bhagadatta and his grandson Vajradatta. There is really no inherent impossibility in the same dynasty ruling from the time of the Mahabharata war down to the seventh century A.D. It is known that a Paurava kin, who must have descended from Puru, the remote ancestor of Yudhishthira of the Mahabharata fame, ruled over a part of the Punjab in the fourth century B.C. when Alexander the Great invaded India. Pragjyotisha was a frontier kingdom of India, girt on all sides except the west, by natural defences.
It is possible that its kings, after Vajradatta, either acknowledged the overlordship of other more powerful kings of northern India or, being out of the way, were not molested by any of them but, the fact that the kingdom came to play no part in the history of northern India within historical times from the rise of Bimbisara in Magadha, in the sixth century B.C. down to the time of Samudra Gupta in the fourth century A.D, is rather striking and leads one to suppose that probably there might have been some upheaval within the kingdom which reduced it to an insignificant position. Anyway, in the absence of clear proof to the contrary, it can assume as correct Bhaskar Varman's claim of descent, in unbroken line, from Naraka, as stated in the Nidhanpur copper-plate inscription.
