Assamese Brahmins or Bamun are the Brahmins present in the Assamese society. There are two classes in Assam Bamun and Ganaks. Brahmins were originally priests. Religious worship in temples is generally carried out by them. There they promoted learning, Vedic religion and astrology, as well as imparting general vedic knowledge to the public. The Indo-Aryans of Assam are the descendants of early migrants from the Gangetic valley and a succession of influences, ideas and cultures entered Assam with them. The Brahmins and Kayasthas came to Assam from Videha (Mithila) and Kannauj.
