'''Atan Burhagohain''' was an influential 17th-century [[Burhagohain]] of the [[Ahom kingdom]]. He served as ''Rajmantri Dangaria'', the chief counsellor, for more than seventeen years, from January 1662 to March 1679. During this period Assam witnessed Mughal invasions first under Mir Jumla and later during the [[Battle of Saraighat]] against Ram Singh. During the internal disruptions that followed he played a prominent part upholding state rule but was ultimately assassinated by his adversaries. He is best known for his foresight, judgement and patriotism; and for refusing to accept the crown twice when it was offered to him. | '''Atan Burhagohain''' was an influential 17th-century [[Burhagohain]] of the [[Ahom kingdom]].
