The village of
Nartiang is significant for it’s Summer Palace of the Jintia King whose
capital was Jaintiapur. The remnants of the summer palace are located on the
hillock approximately two kilometers from the Nartiang market. The archway
which can be seen to this day shows that they were well versed in the making
of red bricks similar to the ones used by the Ahom Kings from Assam. From
the canons found in the Shiva temple it goes to show that they had skills in
techniques of fire arms and metallurgy. At present there lies a Hindu temple
in this vicinity and the priests who practice there are direct descendants
of the original priests that came from Jaintiapur.
