Abstract
A large number of memorial stones, numerous anthropic holes, few “Y” shaped wooden posts and one petroglyph site were found at Lianpui during the course of village to village survey for antiquarian remains in the villages of Mizoram in 2011. One of the unique features of the memorial stones of Lianpui village are the elaborate and intricate carvings of various motifs. They have depiction of a central human figure along with other figures, birds, animals, mithun heads, gongs, lizard, etc. Similar motifs are also found parallel to the petroglyph found at this village. It is proposed to discuss these remains that reflect the culture of the Mizos prior to their adoption of Christianity and forsaking of past practices.
