Abstract

Nyishi people, the largest tribal group in Arunachal Pradesh, have historically inhabited high-altitude settlements for security and strategic advantages. However, with the advent of modernity, they are now transitioning to the foothills and valleys for easier access to facilities while preserving their cultural roots. This shift reflects a broader cultural change, as the Nyishi people strive to balance tradition and modernity.
