What is Missionary Impact on Naga and Kuki Identities about?

This document discusses missionary representations of the Nagas and Kukis in Manipur and how Christianity impacted tribal identities. It argues that missionary representations focused on propensity for conversion rather than colonial classifications. While missionaries contributed written languages, tribal groups also shaped their identities around spoken dialects. The missionary goal of reducing dialects created linguistic borders between tribes.
