Let us begin with Saivism. Saivism is a very old religion in Assam. It goes back to the pre-Ahom age i.e. before thirteenth century A.D. It might be there from even pre-historical age, because it was predominantly a tribal religion. It consists in phallus worship that is connected with fertility cult. That Saivism goes back to the pre-Ahom age may be confirmed by the existence of Siva temples, both present and worn out temples scattered here and there. A temple may be said to be of pre-Ahom age on the basis of the mode of its construction and the materials out of which it is made. The pre-Ahom temples were made of stones cut to the sizes. This culture belonged to the age of the Kacharis who ruled in most of the part of Assam before the advent of the Ahoms. We have a dilapidated temple known as Babathan at Numaligarh in the district of Golaghat situated in Upper Assam. It was on a hill. The decorated stones are lying here and there in the site of the temple. A new temple has been built in the foothills of the hill known as Deopahar. Similarly another temple known as MahabhairavMandir,Mahabhairav is there in Tezpur,the district headquarter of Sonitpur district, a historical place with ancient relics scattered here and there on the northern bank of the river Brahmaputra in the state of Assam. This temple is known as MahabhairavMandir because Mahabhairav is a form of lord Siva. (Tezpur is famous for the legend of Usha, daughter of king Bana and loverAniruddha, grandson of Sri Krishna. Here the famous battle between Siva and Krishna took place. Siva fought with Krishna because king Bana was the disciple of lord Siva. In this battle Siva was defeated by Krishna and Usha was married to Aniruddha secretly without the knowledge of her father. Her father Bana was against this marriage although
