Kaviraja Madhava Kandali (14th century) was an Indian poet from the state of Assam. His Saptakanda Ramayana is considered the earliest translation of the Ramayana into an Indo-Aryan language, Assamese.[1] Another significant work of his is the narrative poem Devajit, which is about superiority of Krishna over the other avatars of Vishnu.[2] Kandali's patron was the Barāha King Mahamanikya (mid 14th century)[3] whose kingdom was located in the Kapili valley.[4] Kabiraja Madhava Kandali was said to be inhabitant of Lanka of Undivided Nagaon.[5]
Musical instruments
He lists several instruments in his "Ramayana", such as mardala, khumuchi, bhemachi, dagar, gratal, ramtal, tabal, jhajhar, jinjiri, bheri mahari, tokari, dosari, kendara, dotara, vina, rudra-vipanchi, etc. (meaning that these instruments existed since his time in 14th century or earlier).[6][7]
