About This Book

The volume presents a detailed ethnographic and linguistic study of the Mikir people, compiled from field notes, vocabularies, and firsthand observations. It surveys domestic life, social organization, customary law, and religious practice with particular attention to funeral ceremonies. The work preserves folk-tales in the native tongue with translations and explanatory notes, and offers a concise grammar and vocabulary, augmented by census figures, measurements, and contemporary reports to contextualize the material.
