"Shupfomei oral tradition"

1.The oral tradition of Shupfomei forefathers claims that the Shupfomei came from different directions to reach Makhel.

2.Makhel is known as the “Womb of the Nagas”.

3.In the case of the Tangkhul Naga,the earliest migrants from Shamshok in Myanmar led by Shimray went first to Shokvao (a village in Ukhrul District) then to Meizalung now at Hunphun (Ukhrul), and finally to Rungatak, but Shimray and his family settled at Longpi.

4.Some Tangkhuls moved north-west.

5.The Kashung clan traces their origin to Shirui Kashong (a mountain in Ukhrul District). From Shirui they moved to Hunphun and from there to other areas.

6.The Anal Naga according to folk-lore settled on the Arakan coast and then moved to the Chin Hills of Burma.

7.Another theory is that they came from the Mizo hills. They settled in different parts of Manipur.

8.The Moyon Nagas probably settled in Manipur from the first century A.D. They fled to Burma after the death of the famous chief Kuurkam Nguwruw but returned to Manipur after the defeat of the Moirang by the Meiteis.

9.According to John Shakespeare, the Tarao came to Manipur from Burma in the 16th century A.D., although Gangmumei Kabui dates their arrival to the 14th century A.D.

10.It is apparent from Oral History and Tradition that the different Naga tribes came to Manipur from China, and en route they sojourned for a considerable period of time in Burma.

11.It is also widely accepted that it was

from Makhel that the Naga tribes dispersed and made settlements in the hill areas of Manipur.

12.They inhabit today most of the hill districts of Manipur.

13.Although split into different tribes, Naga customary law is applicable to all and the Passage of Rites of the tribes bears a striking resemblance to one another.
