Dr. Tage Kanno explains the Tayin Lanpii myth
- 10 years ago
Dr. Tage Kanno, blogger, archivist, writer, journalist and member of NgunuZiro, talks about Apatani culture and history. Here, in this clip he talks about the Tayin Lanpii caves in the Ziro valley.
Tayiñ Lañpii in the grazing grounds of Reru village was such an isolation settlement catering to leprosy patients in the area.
The name Tayiñ Lañpii itself inspired awe and mystery in the past. It still do to some extent. A pile of huge rocks, forming innumerable interconnecting caves. The Tayiñ Lañpii area now forms the vague boundary of two bamboo gardens. The stones and the caves still retain the feeling of grandeur they give to the explorers.
Apart from its historical significance as the only known isolation settlement for leprosy patients in the area, Tayiñ Lañpii is unique in itself.
