Exploring the Cultural Significance of Traditional Games and Sports Among the Tangkhul Nagas: A Sociocultural Analysis

Author(s) Sochanphy A. Shimray
Country India
Abstract This study delves into the cultural significance of traditional games and sports among the Tangkhul Nagas, an indigenous community residing in Northeast India. Through a sociocultural analysis, this paper examines how these activities are intricately woven into the fabric of Tangkhul Naga society, influencing and reflecting their values, social structures, and identities. The research highlights the role of traditional games in fostering community cohesion, preserving cultural heritage, and transmitting knowledge across generations. It explores seven specific games and sports, and their historical contexts from a folkloristic perspective to provide a rich and nuanced understanding of this unique tradition. The paper argues that the Tangkhul Naga traditional games and sports are not just a relic of the past, but vital cultural expressions that sustain the Tangkhul Naga identity and contribute to the broader discourse on cultural preservation and diversity.
