The aim of this study is to bring to light the contributions of women in the social milieu of the headhunting Naga society. The anarchical state of the country had rendered it necessary for Naga men to be always ready for an assault consequently the main bulk of work, of sustaining life, fell upon women. Polygyny was an added advantage for man as he could boast of enough supply of labour in his wives and children thereby enhancing his wealth. Considering the amount of labour women put into for the continuance of the tribe and to the economic advancement of the husbands, it could have earned her a place in the society but this was not so. Tradition and customs of the tribe favoured men and women‟s contributions were overshadowed by men‟s achievements. Keywordsheadhunting, polygyny, labour, tradition, patriarchal
