Sinlung

Sinlung (origin: Hmar; Chhinlung in Mizo; Chinlung in Chin; Khul in Thadou and Paite) is the supposed 'ancestral origin' of the Hmar people (or the larger Mizo people), the Chin people, etc. The exact location is unknown, but it is believed to be somewhere in southern China. Several narratives of Sinlung have been 'enshrined' largely in Hmar folklore, such as the Sikpui Hla which talks about a supposed ancestral migration.
