About
A community home for Naga history.
Morung Museum is a Naga community archive. Its purpose is to gather, describe, and make accessible the photographs, films, sound recordings, books, and manuscripts that record Naga life — and to keep that record close to the communities it belongs to.
Much of the historical material relating to the Naga people was collected in the early twentieth century and is now held in museums and universities far from the Naga homeland. This archive exists to bring that record together in one accessible place, to describe it carefully, and to support the wider work of return and reconnection now under way.
How we handle rights
Every item in this archive carries a clearly recorded rights status. We do not claim ownership of material we do not hold rights to. Where an item's rights are still being confirmed, it is labelled as such and shown only for educational and research purposes.
If you hold rights to anything shown here and would like it credited differently, corrected, or removed, please write to us. We will respond promptly. This archive is built on consent, not appropriation.
How items get here
Items are added by the archive's editors, and by community members who contribute their own photographs and family records through the Contribute page. Every contribution is reviewed before it appears.
