These pyramid-like burial mounds located in Charaideo were the final resting places of Ahom royalty, including queens. While specific queens cannot be attributed to individual moidams, their presence reflects the importance accorded to them in the kingdom.
Queens often played a vital role in supporting cultural and artistic endeavors. While specific monuments built under their direct patronage might be difficult to pinpoint, their contribution to the overall flourishing of Assamese art and architecture cannot be ignored.
Queens often held significant political power and influence during their times. Their decisions and preferences could have impacted the construction of various monuments, even if they weren't directly credited for them.
