	'''Medieval Kangleipak''' or '''Medieval Manipur''' is the long period in the history of [[Manipur]] between the "ancient period" and the "modern period".<ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=manipur.History_of_Manipur~~.History_Of_Medieval_Manipur_1</ref> It encompasses the 15th century AD to the 19th century AD.<ref>https://themanipurpage.tripod.com/history/puwarimeitei.html~~#~~(iii)%20The%20Medieval%20Period</ref>~~

	~~==Periods==~~
	~~===Early medieval period===~~
	~~[[File:Vishnu_temple,_Bishnupur_01.jpg\|thumb]]~~
	The medieval period of [[Manipur]] starts with the slow declining of the indigenous [[Sanamahism\|Meitei faith]] during the reign of King [[Senbi Kiyamba]]. In celebration for their victory over Kyang, the King of Pong presented Kiyamba with a golden box containing a stone known as ''Pheiya'' (Almighty).<ref>{{cite book\| author=Keerti Chand Tensuba\| title=Genesis of Indian Tribes: An Approach to the History of Meiteis and Thais\| publisher=Inter-India Publications\| place=New Delhi\| year=1993\| isbn=9788121003087}}</ref> Kiyamba built a brick temple in the capital Lamangdong, {{convert\|27\|km\|mi\|abbr=off}} south of [[Imphal]], in 1475 for the sacred stone.

Simultaneously, the little by little immigration of the Brahmins from the [[Bengal]] starts the onset of [[Hinduism]] in the kingdom.<ref>https://themanipurpage.tripod.com/history/puwarimeitei.html#(iii)%20The%20Medieval%20Period</ref><ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=manipur.Manipur_and_Religion.Hinduism_in_Manipur_Part_1_By_Chirom_Rajketan</ref>

	During the late medieval period, it was during the reign of Emperor [[Pamheiba]] that [[Hinduism]] became the state official religion in the kingdom, with the replacement of the indigenous [[Sanamahism]] in the 18th century AD.<ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=reviews.arts.Hinduism_in_Manipur_A_Political_Perspectives_By_Rinku_Khumukcham</ref><ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=manipur.Manipur_and_Religion.Hinduism_in_Manipur_Part_1_By_Chirom_Rajketan</ref><ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=manipur.Manipur_and_Religion.Hinduism_in_Manipur_Part_2_By_Chirom_Rajketan</ref><ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=manipur.Manipur_and_Religion.Hinduism_in_Manipur_Part_1_By_Chirom_Rajketan</ref> Simultaneously, in 1729 AD, the [[Puya Mei Thaba]], the burning up of the sacred scriptures took place in the [[Kangla]] by the order of the then monarch, Pamheiba.<ref>http://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=news_section.opinions.Puya_Meithaba_The_Burning_of_Meitei_Sacred_Scripture_By_Madhu_Chandra</ref>

	[[Manipur Kingdom]] was annexed by the Burmese forces after which [[Bhagya Chandra]] ([[Ching-Thang Khomba]]), the grandson of [[Pamheiba]], appealed to Ahom king Rajeswar Singha for military assistance. Rajeswar Singha agreed to send an army to overthrow Chitsai and reinstate Bhagya Chandra. The expedition hit many snags in [[Nagaland]] where they were attacked by [[Naga people\|Naga tribesmen]] and poisonous snakes. Rajeswar Singha called off the unsuccessful venture in 1767.
	In November 1768, [[Bhagya Chandra]] and Rajeswar Singha decided to make another attempt to invade Manipur. This time Bhagya Chandra led 10,000 Ahom troops across the [[Kachari kingdom]] to the Mirap river.
