Nagaland
1. WELCOME
2. NAGALAND Nagaland, the land of the hospitable and warm Nagas, lies in the corner of India’s North-East-bordering Myanmar. It has always evoked a sense of awe and wonder in the minds of people including the visitors. Although most of the
Nagas have now become Christians, they still preserve the remnants of their early animist culture and ancient traditions.
3. Historically, the Nagas have always been brave warriors. They consider the safety and security of their guests as an honour and prestige and will never allow any harm to be done to any of their guests/visitors. Topographically, Nagaland is
mostly a hilly region with a pleasant and salubrious climate throughout the year, except for a small region in the foothills. Nagas are by race of the Mongoloid stock and speak Tibeto- Burman group of languages. But English and Hindi are widely
spoken and language is no problem in Nagaland.
4. Colorful life and culture are an integral part of the 16 o icially recognized Naga tribes of Nagaland. These 16 tribes are di erent and unique in their customs and traditions. These customs and traditions are further translated into festivals which
revolve around their agricultural cycle. Songs and dances form the soul of these festivals through which their oral history has been passed down the generations. Nature has been kind to the Nagas and their land.
5. NAGA CUISINE Naga cuisine, of the Naga people, features meats and fish, which are o en smoked, dried or fermented . The various Naga tribes have their own cooking varieties, but they o en interchange recipes. A typical Naga table consists of
a meat dish, a boiled vegetable dish or two, rice and a chutney (Tathu). Nagas tend to prefer boiled edible organic leaves. Some common dishes are "fermented bamboo shoot" (made from the tender shoot of the Bamboo tree) with fish and pork.
axone(soyabean boiled, fermented and either smoked or sun dried) with smoked pork and beef.
6. Smoked meat is produced by keeping the meat above the fire or hanging on the wall of the kitchen for 2 weeks or longer, which could last for the whole year ahead. Anishiis fermented yam leaves made into patties and smoked over the fire or
sun dried . Naga food tends to be spicy(chillies). There are di erent varieties of chillies in Nagaland. The ginger used in the Naga cuisine is spicy, aromatic and is di erent from the common ginger. The garlic and ginger leaves are also used in cooking
with meat. Another popular dish is a soupy dish which is had with cold rice made mostly when one feels under the weather or a migraine, called by di erent name by the di erent naga tribes.
7.
8. HISTORY The Nagas were originally referred to as Naka in Burmese language, which means 'people with pierced noses'.[1] The Naga tribes had socio- economic and political links with tribes in Assam and Burma (Myanmar); even today a large
population of Naga inhabits Assam and the hill districts of Manipur. Following an invasion in 1816, the area, along with Assam, came under direct rule of Burma. This period was noted for oppressive rule and turmoil in Assam and Naga hills.
9. When the British East India Company took control of Assam in 1826, Britain steadily expanded its domain over all of the Naga Hills except the Tuensang area in the northeast by 1892. This geographical area was politically amalgamated into Assam.
Missionaries played an important part in converting Nagaland's Naga tribes to Christianity.[2] Not much is known about the history before the Burmese invasion or before the Naga people were converted to Christianity.
10. GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE Nagaland is largely a mountainous state. The Naga Hills rise from the Brahmaputra Valley in Assam to about 2,000 feet (610 m) and rise further to the southeast, as high as 6,000 feet (1,800 m). Mount Saramati at an
elevation of 12,601.70 feet (3,841.00 m) is the state's highest peak; this is where the Naga Hills merge with the Patkai Range in Burma.
11. Rivers such as the Doyang and Diphu to the north, the Barak river in the southwest and the Chindwin river of Burma in the southeast, dissect the entire state. 20 percent of the total land area of the state is covered with wooded forest, rich in flora
and fauna. The evergreen tropical and the sub tropical forests are found in strategic pockets in the state. Nagaland has a largely monsoon climate with high humidity levels. Annual rainfall averages around 70–100 inches (1,800–2,500 mm),
concentrated in the months of May to September. Temperatures range from 70 ° F (21 ° C) to 104 ° F (40 ° C). In winter, temperatures do not generally drop below 39 ° F (4 ° C), but frost is common at high elevations.
12. The state enjoys a salubrious climate. Summer is the shortest season in the state that lasts for only a few months. The temperature during the summer season remains between 16 ° C (61 ° F) to 31 ° C (88 ° F). Winter makes an early arrival and
bitter cold and dry weather strikes certain regions of the state. The maximum average temperature recorded in the winter season is 24 ° C (75 ° F). Strong north-west winds blow across the state during the months of February and March
13.
14. FLORA AND FAUNA Nagaland is rich in flora and fauna. About one-sixth of Nagaland is under the cover of tropical and sub-tropical evergreen forests—including palms, bamboo, and rattan as well as timber and mahogany forests. While some forest
areas have been cleared for jhum cultivation, many scrub forests, high grass, reeds; secondary dogs, pangolins, porcupines, elephants, leopards, bears, many species of monkeys, sambar, harts, oxen, and bu aloes thrive across the state's forests.
15. The Great Indian Hornbill is one of the most famous birds found in the state. Blyth's Tragopan, a vulnerable species of pheasant, is the state Bird of Nagaland. It is sighted in mount Japfü and Dzükou valley of Kohima district, Satoi range in
Zunheboto district and Pfütsero in Phek district. Of the mere 2500 tragopans sighted in the world, Dzükou valley is the natural habitat of more than 1,000.[17]
16. CULTURE The sixteen main tribes of Nagaland are Angami, Ao, Chakhesang, Chang, Dimasa Kachari, Khiamniungan, Konyak, Lotha, Phom, Pochury, Rengma, Sangtam, Sumi, Yimchunger, Kuki and Zeliang. The Konyaks, Angamis, Aos, Lothas, and
Sumis are the largest Naga tribes; there are several smaller tribes as well (see List of Naga tribes). Tribe and clan traditions and loyalties play an important part in the life of Nagas
17. The sixteen main tribes of Nagaland are Angami, Ao, Chakhesang, Chang, Dimasa Kachari, Khiamniungan, Konyak, Lotha, Phom, Pochury, Rengma, Sangtam, Sumi, Yimchunger, Kuki and Zeliang. Tribe and clan traditions and loyalties play an
important part in the life of Nagas. Weaving is a traditional art handed down through generations in Nagaland. Each of the tribe has its own unique designs and colours, producing shawls, shoulder bags, decorative spears, table mats, wood carvings,
and bamboo works. Among many tribes the design of the shawl denotes the social status of the wearer.
18. FOLK SONGS AND DANCES Folk songs and dances are essential ingredients of the traditional Naga culture. The oral tradition is kept alive through the media of folk tales and songs. Naga folks songs are both romantic and historical, with songs
narrating entire stories of famous ancestors and incidents. There are also seasonal songs which describe various activities done in a particular agricultural season.
19. FESTIVALS The tribes of Nagaland celebrate their festivals with gusto and fervor. More than 60% of the population of Nagaland depends on agriculture and therefore most of their festivals revolve round agriculture. They consider their festivals
sacred and so participation in these festivals is compulsory. Nagaland is known as the land of festivals as each tribe celebrates its own festival with dedication and passion.
20. HORNBILL FESTIVAL OF NAGALAND It was launched by the Government of Nagaland in December 2000 to encourage inter-tribal interaction and to promote cultural heritage of the state. Organized by the state Tourism and Art & Culture
Departments, Hornbill Festival showcases a mélange of cultural displays under one roof. This festival takes place between 1 and 7 December every year. The Festival is named a er the Hornbill, the globally respected bird and which is displayed in
folklore in most of the state's tribes. The week long festival unites one and all in Nagaland and people enjoy the colourful performances, cra s, sports, food fairs, games and ceremonies
21. NAGA TRIBESMEN AT KISAMA DURING THE HORNBILL FESTIVAL OF NAGALAND.
22. RELIGION Christianity is the predominant religion of Nagaland. The state's population is 1.988 million, out of which 90.02% are Christians. Hinduism and Islam practiced by the non-Naga community are minority religions in the state, at 7.7% and
1.8% of the population respectively. An ancient indigenous religion known as the Heraka is followed by a few people (4,168) belonging to the Zeliangrong tribe living in Nagaland.
23. LANGUAGES Every tribe in Nagaland has its own unique language. Nagas speak more than 20 di erent dialects. The traditional languages do not have any script of their own. The Christian missionaries used Roman script for these languages. ฀
In 1967, the Nagaland Assembly proclaimed English as the o icial language of Nagaland. Nagamese is the most widely spoken market language.
