Ancient Manipur, also known as Antique Kangleipak[1], was a civilization flourished in the central plains of the present day Manipur, India.[2][3][4][5][6] The Kangla served as the foremost capital city of the realm since time immemorial till the late 19th century AD.[7] It had its earliest recorded evidence of the existence of monarchy right from the reign of Emperor "Tangcha Leelaa Pakhangba" (1445 BC-1405 BC).[8][9]
History
The earliest recorded history of the existence of monarchy starts with the reign of Tangja Leela Pakhangba in 1445 BC.[10]
