The principal Angami festival in the Sekrenyi. It is celebrated
in February by the Western Angamis and in December by the Southern
Angamis. The festival is to ensure the health and well being of the community
during the coming year. It is an occasion of great merry making, enormous
quantities of rice-beer, beef and pork are consumed. An interesting
feature of the festival is that the men have to prepare a separate hearth
and abstain from any sexual relation for the first two days.
