History of Rumjatar Gumba

History has noted that Gurung ethnic migrated from the west Nepal and settled here in around 1773-74 AD with the Great king Prithivi Narayan Shah’s campaign of integrating the fragmented small states and carving a grater Nepal. 

With passage of time, Gurung culture, which is predominantly Buddhist, got assimilated with aryan’s (Brahmins) and gradually forgotten together with the Gurung language. In the same course history has also made Rumjatar a great land, a land that flourished with the strategist champion like commander Bir Jhagal Gurung during Prithivi Narayan Shah’s era, pioneer Nepali singer Mis Melawa Devi- the first female singer to record song on gramophone, the self-borne well acclaimed artist Singh Raj Gurung, leading entrepreneur in sheep farming Jay Bahadur Gurung, a lone crusader of anti-racial discrimination and educationist saint Gyan Dil Das, education revolutionary Ms. Ram Kumari Gurung (“Nani Saheb” of the then Gen. Ram Shamsher of Rana regime) and so on. Gurungs of Rumjatar began to be known as rich in many ways but, at the same time, also as an ethnic group who gradually lost their original language and culture.
