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 dis ciplines 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.
