Abstract
The Sivasagar district of Assam is well known as the land of colourful tribes. There are about nine major tribes with colourful culture, customs and tradition in the district. Among these tribes, the Konyak is one of the significant tribes in the Sivasagar district of Assam. They migrated from Nagaland to Sivasagar district due to different economic, political and ecological factors in the Ahom period. There are only two villages of Konyak Nagas which are Hahchara Nagagaon and Mainating Nagagaon in the district. The two major villages are surrounded by different segments of the Assamese society. It is observed that the Konyak community as a whole is under the process of rapid change. The Konyaks are basically truthful and peace loving people. They are more interested to maintain social peace and harmony. But over time, modern complexities have also touched them after the independence. The Konyak Nagas have a rich tradition of festivals in the Sivasagar district of Assam.
