Lungzubel which means "Stone rice beer containers or jars" in the Biate language are stone relics found in the southwestern part of Dima Hasao district in Assam and its surrounding areas extending to the neighboring state of Meghalaya.
There are many big big stone jars in some parts of our district, in Amrudisa village in Dimasa we call this village Magamsaknai - the elders of the village told me they were meant to be used as Looking Glass because in the earliet days there was no known mirrors.As in the top was a hole where water is collected.
The Stone jars and stone carvings in Kharthong areas aren't just any ordinary stones but they're the handiwork and legacy of our Biate ancestors. The stone jars are used for making & storing wines. The carving on the stones haven't been decypher till now but we believed they hold some important stories,mesages etc of our Biate Society, cultures, custom and Stories left to us by our Ancestors. I personally believed the Lungzubel area must be a very important and revered area of our ancestors when we practice Animism long before we acceot Christianity . Maybe it was a place of worship ,holy place etc The way the Stone jars are lines up along the path is not out of the blue but for a specific reasons and the stone paintings/carvings hold some history of our Biate Communities yet to decypger to the new generation of us Biate or the modern world as a matter of fact. Maybe the Archeological department from the Discovery Channel can decode the carvings on the stones or they may find it simikars to other Archeological facts from other countries or Civilization
Bro get out from your narrow world and do research sometimes 😂 Biate are Biate & Baite is different, Baite & Biate language are far different from eachother
