About Naga Textiles and patterns
Each Naga tribe has a specific attire which is depicted by certain textile patterns and jewellery. The most important garment for the nagas is the shawl. Each Naga clan/tribe has their own pattern which they use to identify themselves. A study of thses different patterns is revealing eg cowries is some of the clothes indicate trade as Nagaland has no access to the sea or is nowhere close to it. A head mask indicated the headhunting practice which was the norm a few generations ago.
