About the tribe: One of the major tribes of Arunachal Pradesh, oral sources aptly mention that the Nyishis had migrated from the north. They referred the crossing of a mighty river named Supung, which probably might be the river Tsangpo in China. The Nyishi’s are spread across eight districts of Arunachal Pradesh: Kra Daadi, Kurung Kumey, East Kameng, West Kameng, Papum Pare, parts of Lower Subansiri, Kamle and Pakke Kesang district. They also live in the Sonitpur and North Lakhimpur districts of Assam (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nishi_people). The people basically belong to Paleo-Mongoloid stock and speak the Tibeto-Burmese group of language. They are the descendants of Abo Tani-a mythical forefather. It is believed that they migrated from, the north via present autonomy state of Tibet in the beginning of the Christian era. The people of these communities are extremely rich in their traditional knowledge that helped them to lead a healthy life there as the modern amenities started reaching there only recently.
