This book is the outcome of the author's Ph.D work submitted to the Guwahati University and is perhaps the first in depth study on the Angami Nagas from the Physical Anthropology point of view. The study provides a comprehensive account of the physical characteristics of the Angami Nagas one of the major and important Naga tribes amongst the 13 main tribes of Nagaland. The study attempts to reflect on the ethnic position of the Angamis by comparing their physical traits with those of the other Naga tribes of Nagaland and other major tribes of North East India namely Khasis Mishings Kacharis Adi Mishings and others as also with some of the Asiatic Mongoloids such as the Tibetans Uzbeks Buriats Mons Limbus Newars and Lepchas for a wider perspective. For convenience and easy reference the book has been divided into four chapters. Chapter 1 has introduction and chapter 2 deals with physical traits of the Angami Nagas with sections on morphological traits genetic traits dermatoglyphics behavioural traits besides comparison of the present study with that of other workers. Chapter 3 discusses the ethnic position with sections on the relative position of the Angamis amongst other Naga tribes vis a vis the Mongoloid population of North East India and the Asiatic Mongoloids. The last chapter summarises the study and the findings. Being the first comprehensive work of this nature the book will evoke general interest among the readers and will pave the way for further researches on this and other major Naga tribes so as to have a greater understanding about their origin and the causes of population variation at the micro level. 124 pp.…
