where was the name of kamrupa mentioned for the first time
Kamarupa Kamarupa and the northeast Indian region find no mention in the Ashokan records (3rd century BCE).[11] The first dated mention comes from the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea (1st century) where it describes a people called SÃªsatai,[12] and the second mention comes from Ptolemy's Geographia (2nd century) calls the region Kirrhadia after the Kirata population.[13] Arthashastra (early centuries of the Christian era[14]) mentions "Lauhitya",[15] which is identified with Brahmaptra valley by a later commentator.[16]
