  • Khamti Buddhism and Culture an Observation from a Visit to Khamti Land in Arunachal Pradesh in 2006 *
    Khamti Buddhism and Culture An Observation from a Visit to Khamti Land * in Arunachal Pradesh in 2006 By Associate Professor Dr. Siraporn Nathalang, Department of Thai and Director of Thai Studies Center Faculty of Arts, Chulalongkorn University Bangkok 10330, Thailand Introduction Shan are Tai speaking peoples, called by Thai people in Thailand as “TaiYai” () opposed to “Tai Noi” () which refers to Thai and Lao people. However, Shan call themselves “Tai” (), “Tai Loung” or “Tai Luang” ( ). Historically, it is said that Shan kingdom was the oldest Tai kingdom known as Mawk Khao Mao Luang Kingdom (กก) dated around 6th century. Later on, there was another center of Shan power called Saenwi Kingdom (ก) which covered the land Shan State today. In the 13th century, a certain group of Shan migrated across Khao Pad Kai (Pad Kai Mountain Range- กก) to settle down on the other side of the mountain establishing Ahom Kingdom in the area of Assam, India today. In late 8 th to Early 19 th century, a large group of Shan, e.g, Tai Khamti (), Tai Ai-Ton ( ), Tai Pha-Ke (ก ) from northern part of Shan State migrated to live in Assam and certain Tai Khamti group migrated to live in certain part of Arunachal Pradesh (), India. All of these so-called Tais in various names are Shan people who all share common Shan culture. Today majority of Shan people live in Shan State, Myanmar, but they also live in Dehong Prefecture in Yunnan, People’s republic of China which used to be the land of Muang Mawk Khao Mao Luong (ก) in the old days, in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, India and also in northern Thailand, particularly in Maehongson province.

  • Impact of Therawada Buddhism in the Traditional Belief of Tai Khamti of Arunachal Pradesh, India
    13TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON THAI STUDIES GLOBALIZED THAILAND? CONNECTIVITY, CONFLICT AND CONUNDRUMS OF THAI STUDIES 15-18 JULY 2017, CHIANG MAI, THAILAND Impact of Therawada Buddhism in the Traditional Belief of Tai Khamti of Arunachal Pradesh, India Chautang, Nang Sulina Chaturvedi, Shivam Arunachal University of Studies Namsai, Arunachal Pradesh India -------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract The Khamti or Tai-Khamti as they are also known, are a sub- group of the Shan people found in the Sagaing division Hkamti district in northern Burma as well as Namsai district of Arunachal Pradesh, India. The Khamti who inhabit the region around the Tengapani basin were descendents of Shan migrants who came during the 18th century from the Bor-Khamti region, mountainous valley of the Irrawaddy. The khamtis are a small tribe inhabiting the Namsai district of Arunachal Pradesh, but they are an important tribe, as they are culturally far advance and have many special characteristics in compare to other tribes of the state. They can hardly be called a “hills tribes”, as they live entirely in the plain areas near Nao-Dihing and Tengapani rivers. Out of 28 major tribes of Arunachal Pradesh, the Khamtis and the Monpas are the only tribes, which have their own sound literature. The Tai Khamti of Arunachal Pradesh profess the Therawada school of Buddhism. It is the oldest form of Buddhism and arose in India during the time of the historical Buddha and spread throughout south East Asia. Among the Khamti of Arunachal Pradesh side by side with the canonical Buddhist beliefs there is also a beliefs of phi (sprits).
