For the ancient pejorative term for foreign people in India, see Mleccha.
The Mlechchha dynasty (c. 650 - 900) ruled Kamarupa from their capital at Harruppesvar in present-day Tezpur, Assam, after the fall of the Varman dynasty.[2] According to historical records, there were twenty one rulers in this dynasty, but the line is obscure and names of some intervening rulers are not known.[3] Like all other Kamarupa dynasties a semi-mythical lineage from Narakasura was constructed to accord legitimacy to their rule.[4] The Mlechchha dynasty in Kamarupa was followed by the Pala kings. The dynasty is unrelated to the previous Varman dynasty.[5]
