Kamrupi Brahmins, also known as Kamarupi Brahmana and Kamrupi Bamon; are those brahmins who claimed their descent from the Kanauji Brahmins and Maithili Brahmins who settled in Kamarupa (present day Assam). They brought with them different Hindu epics and became the torch-bearers of Indo-Aryan culture in the region.
