This book is the first to bring together contemporary research on Tibeto-Burman-speaking hill peoples in this region and the only multi-disciplinary study of the closely related topics of origins and migration in this part of Asia, presenting current research by anthropologists, folklorists, linguists and historians. Through a series of case studies on local and regional populations, the contributors explore origins and migration in relation to theoretical and methodological approaches, language, identity and narrative. 410 0$aBrill's Tibetan studies library ;$vv. 16/4. 606 $aTibeto-Burman peoples$zHimalaya Mountains$xOrigin 606 $aTibeto-Burman peoples$xMigrations$xHistory 606 $aTibeto-Burman peoples$zHimalaya Mountains$xHistory 606 $aTibeto-Burman peoples$zHimalaya Mountains$xSocial life and customs 606 $aMountain people$zHimalaya Mountains 606 $aEthnology$zHimalaya Mountains 607 $aHimalaya Mountains$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 607 $aHimalaya Mountains$xSocial life and customs 607 $aHimalaya Mountains$xEthnic relations 615 0$aTibeto-Burman peoples$xOrigin. 615 0$aTibeto-Burman peoples$xMigrations$xHistory. 615 0$aTibeto-Burman peoples$xHistory. 615 0$aTibeto-Burman peoples$xSocial life and customs. 615 0$aMountain people 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a954.96 701 $aHuber$b Toni$f1956-$0777832 701 $aBlackburn$b Stuart H$0532499 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825079903321 996 $aOrigins and migrations in the extended eastern Himalayas$94037692 997 $aUNINA
