kAmarUpa An important kingdom said to have extended from the banks of the Karatoyā or Sadānīrā to the extremities of Assam. It must have extended up to the Himālaya on the north and the borders of China on the east, as its king is said to have assisted Duryodhana with an army of Kirātas and Cīnas. The ancient capital of this kingdom was prAgjyotiza on the other side of the Lauhitya or the river Brahmaputra; cf. R. 4. 81.
