Hmar Cultural Heritage sites | Lungthulien | Parbung | Senvon | at Pherzawl District-English version

This documentary is a manifestation of deep historical roots of the Hmar tribes and their cultural heritages in present day Pherzawl district documented in a visual form. The documentary is a work of Hmar Arts and Cultural Society in association with RWUS and Cultural Heritage Protection Committee from different villages and dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich heritage of the Hmar community. 1. LUNGTHULIEN VILLAGE i) Lungthu Lien Pathum: These extraordinarily big trivets were erected by Hmar forefathers on the outskirts of the present Lungthulien village at around 1852. At the beginning, Hmar's forefathers first settled at Khurpui village and later on shifted to the present Lungthulien village which came to be named after these big trivets. ii) Vawmpalung: This rocky cliff is called Vawmpalung where the two lovers Vawmpa and Vawmnu once took shelter and shared their happiest moments oblivious of their village folks. They fell from this high rocky cliff and died together below, never to part in life after death. 2. PARBUNG VILLAGE i) Pasalṭha Lungdaw: Here laid a Parbung warrior and hero Who died during the war between Eastern and Western warriors. Knowing not the art of writing and reading, Images and pictures were simply engraved On this memorial stone. ii) Lunglêng Lung: A Rock of melancholic: This is a mountain of melancholia, Whosoever climbed on this mountain, Cannot but feel melancholic, So they used to scribble something On the rock below. So it is called a Rock of Melancholia. 3. SENVON VILLAGE i) Zawllung: This Zâwllung is also called Sikpui Lung. It was erected for the drummer and the chanter of the Sikpui song to sit when the Sikpui Festival was celebrated by the Zopui people in 1897. Sikpui Kût is the most important Festival which is celebrated by the Hmar people only. ii) Lungsum: This Lungsum (stone-mortar) at this old Zopui village was carved out of a solid rock which was used for husking rice for the Sikpui Festival. A Hmar family could not afford to have this kind of stone mortar. So it is believed that this lungsum was made specifically for this great festival. iii) Chawnlût Lungphun: This monument was erected to show that Chawnlût Lungṭâu was a Thangsuo. The Thangsuo title was conferred only upon an extraordinary person who hunted down a certain number of wild animals or a successful person who performed sesun inchawng (a ceremonial killing of a mithun to feed his community). According to Hmar's traditional belief, only Thangsuos had direct entry into paradise. Copyright @Rural Women Upliftment Society (RWUS) and Hmar Art and Culture Society, 2024.
