Medieval Manipur is the long period in the history of Manipur between the "ancient period" and the "modern period".[1] It encompasses the 15th century AD to the 19th century AD.[2]
Periods
Early medieval period
The medieval period of Manipur starts with the slow declining of the indigenous Meitei faith during the reign of King Senbi Kiyamba. Simultaneously, the little by little immigration of the Brahmins from the Bengal starts the onset of Hinduism in the kingdom.[3][4]

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.[5][6][7][8] 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.[9]
