Maidam, Royal burial mounds in Charaideo district, India.
The Maidam complex contains multiple earthen mounds constructed over underground vaults with chambers designed for royal burials and ceremonial purposes.
The burial grounds, dating from the 13th to 19th centuries, served as the final resting place for rulers of the Ahom dynasty who governed Assam.
Each burial structure follows specific Ahom religious traditions, with designated clan members conducting ceremonies under the supervision of the Chang-Rung Phukan officer.
The Archaeological Survey of India maintains these burial mounds, which visitors can reach through the road networks connecting to Charaideo district.
The underground chambers contain not only royal remains but also artifacts, servants, horses, and elephants intended to serve the kings in afterlife.
