Abstract:
Mugasangla, a young woman of the Chongli speaking group, wears several rows of carnelian bead necklaces with trumpet shaped metal pieces (metsungsangshi) harnomised in length, spiral brass rings as head ornament, which are also fixed to the top of the ear (yongmen), and a body cloth that shows a patchy dyeing (dark blue), a design that was very much admired and on which Longmisa village was specialised.
