From the 7th to the 11th century, the Katyuri kings ruled the Kumaon region and built the 900-year-old sun temple of Katarmal, on a hilltop facing east (opposite Almora).[1] Kartikeyapura (modern Baijnath) was the new capital and the Gomati Valley came to be known as the Katyur Valley after the ruling dynasty.[2] Sometime in the 10th century, the Chand kingdom was established by Som Chand, who came from Kannuaj near Allahabad, and displaced the Katyuri Kings. He continued to call his state Kurmanchal, and established its capital in Champawat in Kali Kumaon. The Baleshwar and Nagnath temples were built in this former capital city during the 11th and 12th centuries.[3] From the 13th to 18th centuries, Kumaon prospered under the Chand monarchs who had their origins in the plains of India. During this period, learning and new forms of painting (the pahari school of art ) developed.[4] During 1591–1611 One of most powerful ruler of Chand dynasty was Baz Bahadur (1638–78) AD, who met Shahjahan in Delhi, and in 1655 joined forces with him to attack Garhwal, which was under its king, Pirthvi Shah, and subsequently captured the Terai region including Dehradun, which was hence separated from the Garhwal kingdom. Baz Bahadur extended his territory east to karnali river. In 1672, Baz Bahadur, started a poll tax, and its revenue was sent to Delhi as a tribute. Baz Bahadur also built the Golu Devta Temple, at Ghorakhal, near Bhimtal. He also built famous Bhimeshwara Mahadev Temple at Bhimtal. Towards the end of the 17th century, Chand Rajas again attacked Garhwal kingdom, and in 1688, Udyot Chand, erected several temples at Almora, including Tripur Sundari, Udyot Chandeshwar and Parbateshwar, to mark his victory over Garhwal and Doti, the Parbateshwar temple was renamed twice, to become the present Nanda Devi temple.[2] Gyan Chand, the king of kumaon ascended the throne in 1698. In 1699 he attacked Garhwal, which was under the king Fateh Shah. He crossed Ramganga river and plundered Sabli, Khatli, and Sainchar. In 1701, Fateh shah entered in Chaukot (now Syalde region with 3 part, Talla Chaukot (lower), Malla Chaukot (Upper) and Bichla Chaukot (middle)) and Gewar vally (region of Chaukhutiya, Masi and Dwarahat) as reply. The Kumaonis defeated the Garhwalis in the battle of Duduli (near Melchauri in Garhwal). In 1707, the Kumaon forces annexed Juniyagarh in Bichla Chaukot (Syalde), and razed the old fort at Chandpur. Later, Jagat Chand (1708–20), defeated the Raja of Garhwal and pushed him away from Srinagar, and his kingdom was given to a Brahmin. However, a subsequent king of Garhwal, Pradip Shah (1717–72), regained control over Garhwal and retained Doon till 1757, when Rohilla leader, Najib-ud-Daula, established himself there, though he was ousted soon by Pradip Shah. {{multiple image| align = centre | direction = horizontal | header = Kingdom of Kumaon | width = | image1 = Kumaon (Som Chand).png | width1 = 200 | alt1 = | caption1 = Som Chand (700-721) | image2 = Kumaon (Gyan Chand).png | width2 = 200 | alt2 = | caption2 = Garur Gyan Chand (1374-1419) | image3 = Kumaon (Kirti Chand).png | width3 = 200 | alt3 = | caption3 = Kirti Chand (1488-1503) | image4 = Kumaon (Kayan Chand).png | width4 = 200 | alt4 = | caption4 = Balo Kalyan Chand (1560-1568) | image5 = Kumaon (Rudra Chand).png | width5 = 200 | alt5 = | caption5 = Rudra Chand (1568-1597) }} Kumaon ProvinceIn 1791, the Gorkhas of Nepal expanding their empire westwards across Kali River, invaded Almora, the seat of the Kumaon Kingdom and other parts of the kingdom. The Gorkhas were defeated by the East India Company in Anglo-Nepalese War and were forced to cede Kumaon to the British as part of the Treaty of Sugauli in 1816. The Kumaon region was joined with the eastern half of the Garhwal region and was governed as a chief-commissionership, also known as the Kumaon Province, on the non-regulation system.[5] In seventy years it was governed by three successive administrators: Mr. Traill, Mr J. H. Batten and Sir Henry Ramsay. The British set up a small administrative unit to govern the region, known as Patwari Halka.[6] Kumaoni cultureKumaoni peopleKumaoni or Kumaoni are people from the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, they are among the Pahari people which includes the indo Aryan Pahari people in the Himalayan hills India living in the six districts of Almora, Bageshwar, Champawat, Pithoragarh, Nainital, and Udham Singh Nagar. Kumaoni languageThe Kumaoni language (कुमाँऊनी भाषा (Devanagari)) is one of the Central Pahari languages. For a number of reasons, Kumaoni usage is shrinking rapidly. UNESCO’s Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger designates Kumaoni as a language in the unsafe category which requires consistent conservation efforts.[7] Kings{{main|Chand kings#List of Chand Kings}}References1. ^History of Kumaon 2. ^{{cite book|author=Omacanda Hāṇḍā|title=History of Uttaranchal|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7_Ct9gzvkDQC&pg=PA72|accessdate=22 July 2012|year=2002|publisher=Indus Publishing|isbn=978-81-7387-134-4|pages=72–}} 3. ^History Of Kumaon - Brahmins From Kumaon Hills 4. ^Pande, B.
