Summary
editDescriptionGumrag dance of the Mising tribe of Assam at Central Park, Connaught Place, New Delhi 35.jpg |
English: There is no written history of Misings about their migration from the Himalayas to the plains of Assam but history was passed down orally in the form of folk songs and stories by the ancestors from generation to generation and is still prevalent among their society. Although, they were initially hill dwellers, they later migrated to the plains and started living on the banks of rivers of Assam.
Gumrag Sohman (Gumrag Paksong) - This dance is performed on the occasion of Ali-Aye-Leegang and in Mishing Bihu. Nature played a vital role in inspiring the folk and tribal artisans to reproduce its many beauties in their crafts. The handloom fabrics of Assam are noted for their various indigenous artistic designs. The ornamentation is done on the loom itself. The designs are brought out by means of employing an additional layer of dyed yarns based on the ground materials. These extra yarns for design normally float over the main interlocking of warp and weft. This traditional technique is called the extra weft technique. Not only the motifs and designs, colours too play a vital role in the textile tradition of Mishing tribe of Assam. Women are fond of various types of ornaments. Ear and neck ornaments (kentumaduli), chains (tadok), different type of bracelets (konge), golpata (necklace), onsalmora (necklace ), kardoni (bangles ), sondrong (locket ), lv:tog (necklace ) turiang (ear ring) etc.
