The Danava dynasty, established by Mahiranga Danava, begins the political account of Assam in Northeast India. These kings were of Kirata origin (Bodos). These rulers are mentioned in the Kalika Purana though there are no archaeological evidence.
The Danava dynasty consisted of Kirata chiefs; the last of whom, Ghatakasura, was killed and replaced by another mythical king Narakasura of the Naraka dynasty.
