Aoleang festival of the Konyak Nagas is celebrated during the first week of April every year. The video here is a vlog of the celebration at #Tangyu Village on April 02, 2022.Known for their prowess in headhunting, the Konyaks are among the fiercest of headhunters until Christianity led them to abandon the age-old tradition.
Tangyu Village, about 16 kms away from Mon Town, is one of the oldest and largest village in Mon district of Nagaland. It is still home to a few tattooed headhunters although they do not practice the tradition anymore after they embraced Christianity over 55 years ago.
Special thanks to Mangkhah Wangshu and friends of Tangyu Village for the different yet valuable clips without which the video would never be here for viewers.
