Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a qualitative researched book about the Cultural Heritage of Sangtam Naga and the impact of Globalization in the Sangtam Society. Culture is the self identity of every individual in the society and each culture has its own beauty and charm. The Northeastern part of India is a land of tribal people having very rich cultural heritage that speaks the facet of the great culture of our country (India). However, very little is known about them by the rest of the world and even in India today. The study of tribal society and culture of the Northeastern states is therefore one of the interesting and challenging tasks. Through the study of any tribal society and culture like Nagas, one can learn many hidden lessons from them. Like many other tribal people of the world, the Naga culture is under threat from many circles because of which their society is now turning to a different phase of development. It is highly regrettable to note the fast disappearance of the beautiful Naga cultural heritage due to influence of the westernization. As its trend continues, there will be hardly anything of the traditional values system and it would be difficult even to remember the past cultural history in future unless they are properly recorded today. Any given culture is subject to change according to change of time. As a sum total of human's effort, they adjust themselves with different incoming socio-economic environment and improve their modes of living. As a group, dynamic culture is adopted, changed and learned. Every culture of the world has its own charms and the Sangtam Culture is one, which is enchanting with its multifarious hue, beauty and richness. However, there is no systematic documentation of the Sangtam Cultural Heritage till today. In addition, the degree of disappearance is found to be very high due to various reasons. All these are discussed in this book.During our forefather's time, the Sangtams maintained the communitarian values among the people in the community. The community shared love, peace, helping, equality, unity and co-operation etc. But with the coming of western education, modernization, science and technology which mould the society not only in educating but in western tradition, lifestyle, dress code, mass media, easy and comfort life. Which lead the community of Sangtam Naga to decline the communitarian values in the community. After the coming of Christianity, the Sangtam people could not hold both Christian Cultures along with their traditional values systems any longer. It is true, that the Naga traditional belief and practices could not hold the influences of Christianity. As a result, a total change was brought to their society due to impact of Christianity within a short period of time. The common origin, migration and settlement of the Sangtam Nagas, their history, society, culture and common way of life may attract any sincere researchers, writers and scholars. Their folk tales, folk songs, dance and ceremonies, arts, dress, ornaments, institutions etc, speak about the beautiful Sangtam society and culture. The traditional institutes like Murong (Roshengvi), Vil¬lage Khel, Village elders and use of Logdrum (Singkong) etc., and their philosophical meaning and usage are extremely valu-able. The Britishers and the American Missionaries were amazed to see all these kinds of Naga Culture and society when they entered into Naga territory. The main objective of writing and research about this book is to examine the features of the Sangtam society and culture from ancient to contemporary. For this purpose, the Sangtam culture, society and their value systems was selected as a case study.This beautiful hill people's culture is gradually disappearing. As a result, the youngsters are not concerned much about their own culture and customs. For this purpose, writing of such documentation was considered the need of the hour.

Book excerpt: The Naga tribes inhabit the south-eastern foothills of the Himalayas - the border region between India and Burma. Feared as headhunters and shunned by the inhabitants of the plains the Nagas developed a unique material culture and oral tradition. By around the mid 19th century, however, British colonial rule and Baptist missionary activities brought far-reaching changes to Naga culture. After 1947i the Naga Hills were forcibly integrated into the newly formed Indian Union. The result was a bloodywar that raged for more than fifty years - largely unnoticed by the public eye. Only recently the region has been reopened to foreign visitors. The present volume assembles essays byNaga and Western authors, interviews and pictorial contributions dealing with the cultural history and changing identity of the former headhunters.

Book Synopsis Progress and Its Impact on the Nagas by : Tezenlo Thong
Download or read book Progress and Its Impact on the Nagas written by Tezenlo Thong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term ’progress’ is a modern Western notion that life is always improving and advancing toward an ideal state. It is a vital modern concept which underlies geographic explorations and scientific and technological inventions as well as the desire to harness nature in order to increase human beings’ ease and comfort. With the advent of Western colonization and to the great detriment of the colonized, the notion of progress began to perniciously and pervasively permeate across cultures. This book details the impact of the notion of progress on the Nagas and their culture. The interaction between the Nagas and the West, beginning with British military conquest and followed by American missionary intrusion, has resulted in the gradual demise of Naga culture. It is almost a cliché to assert that since the colonial contact, the long evolved Naga traditional values are being replaced by Western values. Consequences are still being felt in the lack of sense of direction and confusion among the Nagas today. Just like other Indigenous Peoples, whose history is characterized by traumatic cultural turmoil because of colonial interference, the Nagas have long been engaged in self-shame, self-negation and self-sabotage.

Download or read book Nagaland written by K. S. Singh and published by South Asia Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Anthropological Survey of India launched the People of India project on 2d October 1985 to generate an anthropological profile of all communities of India, the impact on them of change and the development process, and the links that bring them together. All the communities of Nagaland have been surveyed ethnographically for the first time under this project in all their aspects, cultural, biological and linguistic. Firsthand information was generated on the culture and languages of the people. The Anthropometric Survey was extended to Nagaland to generate biological information, which was supplemented by secondary material. This comprehensive ethnographic material on the people of Nagaland is being presented in this volume. An outstanding feature of the ethnographic situation in Nagaland is the emergence and consolidation of the Nagas as a political and territorial community. The people of India project in Nagaland covers twenty-five communities, out of which fifteen are Naga communities scheduled as tribes. Garo, Kuki, Kachari and Mikir are now non-Naga tribal inhabitants of Nagaland. Apart from this there are six communities which have migrated to Nagaland in recent years, to perform various functions for the dominant Naga communities. Nagaland represents a fine model of synthesis of modernity and tradition. The Village Development Board has drawn countrywide attention for its effective role in ensuring popular participation in the development programme at the grassroots level. The different aspects of life and culture covered in this book include demography, dress, agriculture, food, religion, language, arts and crafts, industry, settlement and house pattern, festivals, fairs, socio-political organization, institutions, rituals and ceremonies, including birth, marriage and death rites, and process of development and change. Dr K. S. Singh retired as Director General of the Anthropological Survey of India. Dr N. K. Das was the anthropologist working at the North-East Regional Centre of Anthropological Survey of India at Shillong.
