Most of them are associated with prose, fiction, drama, poetry and Sanamahism, the Meitei religion, and were composed in Ancient Manipur, Medieval Manipur and Modern Manipur.[1] The Puya (Meitei texts) served as the only basis of literature, besides the oral literature, in both ancient and medieval times.[2]
