The Mikirs — Part 23

(Nos. 4, 6, and 7 agree with Mr. Stack's list under Lèkthe, and Mr. Stack's Kràmsa appears as a further subdivision of Bòngrung. As regards the others, the names beginning with Rong may be local village names; Chinthong and Ronghang are the names of great sections of the Mikir population, not of exogamous groups; Hèmpi and Hèmso mean merely "great house" and "little house.")

II. Timung (Mr. Stack has the same spelling) comprises--

1. Timung Lindòk, subdivision (a) Ròngchaichu. 2. Ròngphar, ,, (a) Hèmpi, (b) Hèmso. 3. Chinthong, ,, (a) Seng-ar, (b) Hèmpi, (c) Hèmso. 4. Phàngchu, ,, (a) Juiti, (b) Rongphàng, (c) Hèmpi, (d) Hèmso. 5. Phura, ,, (a) Dili. 6. Tòkbi, ,, (a) Tòksiki. 7. Kiling 8. Meji 9. Pator 10. Lòngteroi 11. Yachi, ,, (a) Hèmpi, (b) Hèmso. 12. Dera, ,, (a) Hèmpi, (b) Hèmso. 13. Ròngpi

(Here Nos. 2 and 6 correspond with Mr. Stack's subdivisions, and No. 3 (a), Seng-ar, is his Sengnar; several of the remainder appear to be local names.)

1. Làngne, subdivision (a) Ròngchaichu. 2. Kòngkàr, ,, (a) Dengya. 3. Meji 4. Milik, ,, (a) Seràng. 5. Mele 6. Kiling

(Mr. Stack has none of these names; but Làngne evidently corresponds to Làngle in the census list, and Kòngkar to Kangkat, while Milik is in both.)

1. Ingti-Kathar 2. Riso 3. Hènsèk 4. Ingti-Kiling 5. Ingling, subdivisions (a) Hèmpi, (b) Hèmso. 6. Ingti-Chinthòng 7. Taro

(These names, except Riso, which means "young man," all occur in Mr. Stack's group Ingti. Nos. 4 and 6 are evidently local subdivisions.)

1. Rònghàng 2. Kiling 3. Lindòk 4. Seng-òt 5. Teràng, subdivisions (a) Dili, (b) Rongchaichu. 6. Kuru, ,, (a) Rongchaichu, (b) Nihàng, (c) Nilip.
