List of Naga tribes


Naga is a vaguely defined umbrella term for several tribes in North-East India and Upper Burma.

S. R. Tohring (2010) lists 66 Naga tribes. The 1991 Census of India listed 35 Naga groups as Scheduled Tribes: 17 in Nagaland, 15 in Manipur and 3 in Arunachal Pradesh.

In the past, writers such as Dr. Rev Dozo (in The Cross over Nagaland) and Renthy Keitzar, have classified the Kuki as one of the Naga tribes.
