Kirati people
For over two millennia, a large portion of the eastern Himalaya has been identified as the home of the Kirat people, of which the majority are known today as Rai, Limbu, Sunuwar and Yakkha. In ancient times, the entire Himalayan region was known as the "Kimpurusha Desha" (also, Kirata Pradesh), a phrase derived from a Sanskrit term used to identify people of Kirat origin. The earliest references to the Kirat as principal inhabitants of the Himalayan region are found in the texts of "Atharvashirsha" and "Mahabharata", believed to date to before the 9th century BC.
