@House 0fBeauties oh! Wow finally someone knows the truth. Context: Naga's asked the British hen they were about to leave but got ignored and also they didn't grouped us in with the Indians too, India took us in coz the British ruled over both India n the north-east Also if it wasn't because of the British. The Indians would never come close to us, the closest they came was Assam, n didn't bothered us until the British. Anyways we claim our independence the day after India, coz techniquely we were never given our independence nor put under India. No hate to India, just recognise us n spot the racism
These is very similar to my tribe. We are Igorot from the cordillera region in the Philippines. They stopped head hunting the same time around 1970s when Americans and missionaries came. They also had tattoos and the reasons are the same: honor, vengeance, good harvest, fertility, rite of passage. The last living tattooist is age 104 named Whang-od. When I was a kid in the 1990s, in my own tribe I saw some old ladies with lots of tattoos but I'm sure most of them are gone now.
Nagas, Taiwanese, Kachinese of Myanmar, Chiang Mai of Thailand and Philippines of cordillera might have migrated from the Great Wall of China. They have a close affinity and femilarity in many aspects. The designs and patterns on garments/cloths we wesrs, dressing, swords, utensils, tattoos, pigmentation, physical features, head hunting culture and names of the people etc are quite similar. For that matter intensive and comparative study must be done.

It has started happening otherwise, Sangma and Rio should have lost. But people always eelect the governments that eventually destroy them
In 2019 i solo travelled through nagaland and had some special moments there. I stayed in a home of some locals that helped me in the remote town of Tobu. They treat me like i was part of their family. This video is a genuine picture of their culture. Thank you for making it

A wish of mine is to hear my own mother tongue as a foreigner, it's said that our language sounds like a song so. Love to our mother Nagaland
@ Ryn Zhang You are right. The famed Austrian anthropologist Haimendorf gave this overview in his 1939 book "The Naked Nagas" the cultural similarities between the original Nagas and the Dayaks. He also said that our culture could well be one of the oldest in the whole of southeast Asia. Because of the antiquity, richness, and our notoriety as headhunters, today, so many orphan tribes from far and near have embraced our identity. Edit: the original Nagas are now known as Konyak, Phom, Wancho, Nocte and Tangsa in India.
@Arihan Gupta Languages are volatile and can be quite easily subjected to change/modification or even extinction (depending on the number of speakers and frequency of usage) in a matter of few centuries. The classic example being the extinct Tai Ahom language which was consumed by the more dominant Bengali language. In short, overly relying on linguistics to reconstruct very old migrational history can be misleading. Genetic testing and analysis is key here.

Great job on this Vlog Savi. Your Cambodian trip videos lured me to your channel, and I can clearly see the upward progression of your VLOG here. This is your best Vlog: content/storytelling/visual, and I had to check to see whether I was watching a professionally done documentary. Well done and hoping for more and lengthier works like this because I'm in the process of learning how to make documentaries. Aloha! Ackara, Big Island of Hawaii.

It is not at a mountainous altitude, but my last visit ws in 2020. It is still wild country with gentle people. Many Indians have started visiting Nagaland, Arunachal, Mizoram etc. An experience to visit there
Excellent documentary, Savi. This should be shown on PBS. It is award winning. Bravo, well done! How did you first hear or know of this remote village?
@@saviyou I don't know how it is done, but you should really submit it to PBS or a film festival as a short documentary and have it shown to a wider audience.

Great vid savi..BTW..we the dayaks from Borneo island had some similarities in culture with the Nagas..agriculture,hunting ,farming,headhunting and tattoos...head as a trophy...almost...but i wonder about the musical instruments...what does naga people play?
Remind me of the Seediq Bale. I used to think we Chin-Kuki-Mizo and Naga and Seediq Bale are almost related. There is a cave called Lamsial in our land where many skull and bones are kept.
You really are brave to travel and explore it first hand away from the comfort of your home. I am from Nagaland and I've not travel to my neighbouring village too. You've come a long way and I respect you for that...I got to say it..."YOU GOT BALLS" there you have it...I loved your videos...BTW I live in New Delhi..watching your videos took me home..

I've been waTching videos of naga people and i'm always puzzled if there is a connection between Naga people and the cordilleran people of the Philippines especially the kalinga tribe because we share the same culture,tradition,customs, tattoos, and the head hunting staff even the beads we have similarities,, i've been wanting to investigate if we came from the same ancestors
We migrated from eastern part to this present place. Our ornaments shows that we settled near oceans at some time during our migration. With no written records it's difficult for us to know from where we migrated. Nagas are divided into different tribes and we all speak different language. DNA matching can trace the relationship and know from where we migrated.
hello, I saw your comment just now as I was browsing. I am a research scholar from Nagaland, India. Even I read a little bit about the Kalinga tribe. I would love to discuss the possibilities of any relationship between the two groups. If you are open to that please sent me your email id where we can further our discussions.
Originally historically naga was 1 big tribe and it had many sub clans this is the time of prophet noah. So some naga clans started breaking away spreading out further and travelling to different parts of the world, this includes your people also there are head hunters in Indonesia Malaysia and various locations. Christianity came and then followed by islam. The incas and mayans are your cousins and they will be related to naga tribe. Due to time and regions practices and colours and tattoos starts to change due to availability of the environment. Now you understand tattoos is not for fashion, it's a way of life. Also tattoos in middle east and persia have different meanings. Naga tribes and it's people are good people.
Don't forget naga tribes fighting against each other so some tribes will move out. And some naga tribes went beyond head hunting around the world, the mayans and incas final resting place. The naga tribes have big history and they are the warrior people. The Carib tribe in the Caribbean was a fighting tribe another historical naga sub clans. There is a big list of history for naga tribes. The world doesn't know.
A headhunting tribe brought into the light by the Gospel Truth. Much love to my Naga brethren. We meiteis and Nagas share a long history and sometimes fought viciously in the past( cz meiteis and the Nagas are naturally violent tribes)..that's how we tested each other's mettle, and of course, we have much respect for each other. 💟💟💟

I m from Nagaland frm konyak tribe, ur "WORD" Taiwanese reminded me of the movie viz “worries of the Rainbow", almost every thing in that movie is very Naga culture, every thing though it's Taiwanese movie.
A suggestion for your channel name. "savi you-you savvy? Since many people learn new things from each of your videos. Use it like your own tagline at the end of the videos. Hehe.
@@supremekhmer6596 actually it is The way the nagas pronounce dao is pretty similar to daa. I am sure they call it naga da. Not naga dao. . Have you heard something about "hengdang" or "somdeo"
What the Oldman and women says are not written in English subtitles exactly what they said. They are talking about the salt water that they carried from jungle and about the critical life to survive and many more.
The Naga elder says: "Back in my village we could not eat or sleep without thinking about the enemy, when they will attack next." Nowadays we the 'sophisticated ones' lose our minds over a wifi/power outage; and need anxiolytics to eat or sleep.

If you like to take detail notes on HH then you could have visited the upper konyaks not Longwa ..upper konyaks are the actual last head hunters..ended up only in the twentieth century
Very true, upper Konyak ie mostly Tobu Mopong Area are the last of the head hunters, incidents of tribal war and head hunting went on till 1990, which is referred to as the 90 Movement.
Dude seriously dont be salty just because longwa is in limelight and peoples get attracted to longwa rather than our region, longwa village is truly one of the unique village, none of upper lower konyak have a village that rules over several village like longwa has, longwa has its rule not just in india but in arunachal and Myanmar and they lived closely to what our ancestor did than us, moreover longwa is tourists destination for being a village which is part india or Myanmar, you cannot name a village as important as longwa, most upper and lower konyak almost lived more western style lifestyle and do you expect white peoples to visit those part where we are imitating them? No they need more unique and exotic which truly is longwa, and every village practice head hunting you just cannot give credits to one single region
The old two females were driven away by our village ✋🏼. Pataw means Pongchao village that's under Arunachal pradesh,India. Even they still speak the same language of wancho
I think almost every culture in North East India used to do head hunting , like my own tribe . I think the Meiteis were the first one to start head hunting
Nagaland people have something in common to pilipino.the way they eat,the way they dress the way they build houses,faces and color.we hàve also a place in philippines called naga
Nagas have their own history and unique culture. They didn’t have to be part of India. Burma was labeled as the raj yet they don’t identify with india after independence.

The incas and mayans are your cousins and they will be related to naga tribe.
Due to time and regions practices and colours and tattoos starts to change due to availability of the environment. Now you understand tattoos is not for fashion, it's a way of life. Also tattoos in middle east and persia have different meanings.
Naga tribes and it's people are good people.
Don't forget naga tribes fighting against each other so some tribes will move out. And some naga tribes went beyond head hunting around the world, the mayans and incas final resting place. The naga tribes have big history and they are the warrior people. The Carib tribe in the Caribbean was a fighting tribe another historical naga sub clans.
There is a big list of history for naga tribes. The world doesn't know.
They pronounce the “knife” as “dao”, identical to Chinese.
Do chinese also say dao as machetes/knife??
@@alobozhimo915 yes
Dao is used by nepalese too
Dao is the word used for broadsword in entirety of North-East India.
Pls don't think that Nagas are Chinese
A headhunting tribe brought into the light by the Gospel Truth. Much love to my Naga brethren. We meiteis and Nagas share a long history and sometimes fought viciously in the past( cz meiteis and the Nagas are naturally violent tribes)..that's how we tested each other's mettle, and of course, we have much respect for each other. 💟💟💟
We unite together
Nagaland❤️
Naga regiment the most bravery regiment👍❤

Bro...nice job...love from arunachal parades ,AALO
i am puzzled of why i understand some of their terms. i havent been to this naga places.. i came from the northern part of luzon philippines. people called us "igorots". same to taiwanese people. i understand some of their words and somehow has the same meaning. might be coincedent.. but you naga people are so far away.. i believe we have a deep root connection.
Deeper than you realize. The tattooing and headhunting tradition.. the language. DNA. Etc. Gusto mo ba pag-aralan Ng mas malalim? ;)
I m from Nagaland frm konyak tribe, ur "WORD" Taiwanese reminded me of the movie viz “worries of the Rainbow", almost every thing in that movie is very Naga culture, every thing though it's Taiwanese movie.
Beautiful villages n serene life... Love it... Want to visit sometime
Thank you for this video. It is very informative
Glad it was helpful!
One of the cultures from early Philippines' indigenous Igorot tribes
Not forgetting ,we Konyak love strong black tea😂
Great work, so informative.
Nice to see about Nagaland people Tradition, from TN
Naga people : Kind, generous, good looking, brave, fierce
ye bhi alag hi log hai...alag level k cool log hai.......... khatarnaak diversity......
A suggestion for your channel name. "savi you-you savvy?
Since many people learn new things from each of your videos. Use it like your own tagline at the end of the videos. Hehe.
Sadly, for better the old ways are no more practiced. But it doesn't mean they're to be forgotten.
Are u sure the Nagas and khmers aren't related? We look the same and some of the words like "Dao" in khmer means sword or machete.
I am from assam. Here it is called "daa". Our ancestors migrated from Myanmar. Where did khmer originated? Cambodia or Myanmar?
@@bhaskarjyotiborah5357 "Daa" and "Dao" is not even close sounding. The Khmer ancestors came from Yunnan China some 5,000 years ago.
@@supremekhmer6596 actually it is
The way the nagas pronounce dao is pretty similar to daa. I am sure they call it naga da. Not naga dao.
.
Have you heard something about "hengdang" or "somdeo"
@@supremekhmer6596 interesting. our ancestors migrated from mon mong China via Myanmar to India.
@@supremekhmer6596 daa & dao are same means in Bengali . It's means in Bengali weapon/arms🗡️⚔️
Thanks be to Jesus Christ for them now living in peace. That's amazing
Good content. 👍
A very educated vlog
Excellent work my friend.
13:03 my heart 😢. Their generation has suffered so much💔
Govt. Always here to help
They know , even battilion happens
Why belief of them hurts !! They should be educated , govt working ..
Is there a meaning to their hairknots? Love
OUR HEAVENLY, ALMIGHTY GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME... WORDS OF OUR ALMIGHTY GOD IS MORE POWERFUL THAN ANYTHING..
What the Oldman and women says are not written in English subtitles exactly what they said. They are talking about the salt water that they carried from jungle and about the critical life to survive and many more.
The Naga elder says: "Back in my village we could not eat or sleep without thinking about the enemy, when they will attack next."
Nowadays we the 'sophisticated ones' lose our minds over a wifi/power outage; and need anxiolytics to eat or sleep.
If interested in more about these fascinating people please see recent publication and new book at link below. edition.cnn.com/style/article/headhunters-of-nagaland/index.html The co-author is a granddaughter of one these elders.

Freedom freedom freedom.
@Deb Das lol our Naga territory was never under India...get lost of our land. You stinky bitch
Sonam Topden a Chinese spy spotted
@@joaquimfurtado4868 A north Korean spy also spotted 😂
If you like to take detail notes on HH then you could have visited the upper konyaks not Longwa ..upper konyaks are the actual last head hunters..ended up only in the twentieth century
Very true, upper Konyak ie mostly Tobu Mopong Area are the last of the head hunters, incidents of tribal war and head hunting went on till 1990, which is referred to as the 90 Movement.
Dude seriously dont be salty just because longwa is in limelight and peoples get attracted to longwa rather than our region, longwa village is truly one of the unique village, none of upper lower konyak have a village that rules over several village like longwa has, longwa has its rule not just in india but in arunachal and Myanmar and they lived closely to what our ancestor did than us, moreover longwa is tourists destination for being a village which is part india or Myanmar, you cannot name a village as important as longwa, most upper and lower konyak almost lived more western style lifestyle and do you expect white peoples to visit those part where we are imitating them? No they need more unique and exotic which truly is longwa, and every village practice head hunting you just cannot give credits to one single region
Hope you will soon visit Tawang in Arunachal (south Tibet )😇😇😇
My thanks to Savi You for sharing this vid!
Hey photo...i died laughing 😆
Nagaland for Christ. Love from Manipur ❤
The old two females were driven away by our village ✋🏼. Pataw means Pongchao village that's under Arunachal pradesh,India. Even they still speak the same language of wancho
you recognize the people here?
11:31 best part
Good explanation sir
cool I like this one.
Love from nagaland konyak💚
If you were not with the Chief's family.. u wouldn't have been allowed to go to Myanmar border by administration.... Lucky you😊
I'm Konyak but I don't understand anything because we have different dialects
Proud to be Naga plus Christian!
I think almost every culture in North East India used to do head hunting , like my own tribe . I think the Meiteis were the first one to start head hunting
😂😂😂
Thank you.
Their house, language and their traditional objects looks similar with the CHIKIM(CHIN-KUKI-MIZO)
It felt like I stepped back in time...except they all had cellphones :)
Great Warrior 👌❤️
Good job Savy
Nagaland people have something in common to pilipino.the way they eat,the way they dress the way they build houses,faces and color.we hàve also a place in philippines called naga

There are similarities with Dayak tribes in Indonesia head hunters
Mizoram are also the another Headhunter in India
Waoo upload more I like it.
I like how the old lady is like "hey, photo"
Nagas have their own history and unique culture. They didn’t have to be part of India. Burma was labeled as the raj yet they don’t identify with india after independence.
God blessed nagaland. Now naga Christian are the most helpful people from Northeast.
Nagaland is such a beautiful country
i love naga land from uttarakhand
Excellent!
The Dusun in me be excited rn
