THE THEORIES OF ORIGIN OF THE LEPCHAS: AN INDIGENOUS TRIBE OF THE KANCHENJUNGA BASIN

Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2

Abstract

We human beings have since our conception always been on the move. Moving and settling looking for greener pastures has always been in our genes. Through this study we shall try to take a glimpse at how the Lepchas came to settle in the Kanchenjunga basin in the dim past. This mongoloid tribe has no record of migration but some researchers believe that they had to come from some place and give us strong references to stress their view. Others believe that the Lepchas have not moved from this place at all and this basin is their home from time immemorial.
