Who they are
The Nocte are one of the Naga peoples and live mainly in Arunachal Pradesh, in northeastern India. They live by subsistence farming, supplemented by fishing and hunting, and sell objects made of bamboo and cane. The Chalo Loku festival marks the harvest in November, with music, dancing, feasts and visits between neighbors. Traditionally, they worshiped nature spirits and a sky deity, and many combine these beliefs with Buddhism, Hinduism and Christianity.
