This is an extraordinary account of how two men went into Nagaland, a small state in the north-eastern corner of India, and proceeded to meet and observe the culture of the Konyak Nagas, one of the last tribes of people still living a hunter-gatherer existence. Retold through the eyes of the author, Ashim Roy, we learn of the harsh and violent lifestyle that our fellow humans follow in some areas of the world today. But, just how far removed is their society from that of our own? The Konyak Nagas may practice their traditions and beliefs in a shockingly different way to ourselves, but the morals and aims of this highly protective and insular tribe may yet prove to be much the same.

This volume gives an in-depth account of cultural heritage of Nagaland covering important themes like cultural beliefs, traditional knowledge, material culture, and social institutions. Contributors from diverse disciplines and backgrounds have delved into the cultural heritage of the state’s variegated tribes. Nagaland a hilly state in North-East India had been the centre of British colonialism and American Baptist mission. This cultural contact is significantly reflected in the socio-cultural life, and the contributors have shed light on the continuities and changes. This volume highlights the multiplicity of cultural traditions that are specific to various tribes inhabiting sixteen districts of Nagaland, since their experiences of modernity and cultural contact with ‘others’ have been diverse. The contributors have mainly focussed on the cultural heritage of the majority Naga tribes, but other tribes like the Kukis and Kacharis are part and parcel of the cultural melting pot of Nagaland, and this volume in a way underscores the cultural exchange and interactions. Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the print version of this book in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
