The period of Thirteenth century AD (1223), witnessed coming of a group of people from Yunan province of China led by a Shan general Chaolung Sukapha in the Brahmaputra valley, North-East India. He met various groups of people like Moran, Barahi, Kachari, Chutiya, Naga and settled them sometimes with mutual understandings or by defeating them. The valley onlooked the foundation of Ahom kingdom with the arrival of Sukapha. The first ever temporary capital of the Ahom kingdom was Tipam, in the Dihing valley, the name that has been recorded since 1228 A.D. As a kingdom stands by a strong capital, so thus Sukapha was in search of a suitable place and subsequently he found Charaideo Sivasagar as his permanent capital in the year 1253. The advent of Ahoms thus, gave birth to a significant area, Tipam which is historically significant till today. The area became an important place for the Ahoms for searching the suitable place for their kingdom’s capital and also for the Britishers as a hub of commercial advantage by growing the lush tea gardens. Today the area, Tipam is basically came in notice with the Tipam Deohali hills which provide an intrinsically beautiful natural view of Buridihing River, Tea Garden and the Dihing Patkai Rainforests. The paper here also discusses about the Deohali Aai than which is located in the hill top of the Tipam hill and its art and architectural belongings. As a part of the methodology, a field visit was made to the location and several secondary sources were used.
