Just want to inform people that every Abotani tribe has their own "gale," and even we Mising people have our own "gale" as well. All the Abotani ornaments can be worn by us, and these ornaments mostly resemble those of the Adi tribe. The Mising people from the Jia Bharali (Buruli) side wear Mising gale. They are considered more authentic but still have a mix of influences. In our tradition and culture, we should not wear bindi and sindur, but some people are blending different religions into our culture, which is unfortunate. The current popular "age gasor" (sador mekhela) is just a Mising-designed sador mekhela adopted from Assamese culture.
