What are 'Hiknanani' and 'Kaizagnani' in the tribal society ?
Answer: A
They are marriage customs.
Among the Tripuri (Kokborok-speaking) people of Tripura, marriage can be made in more than one way, and each way has its own Kokborok name. Hiknanani and Kaizagnani are two such names, which is why the paper groups them together as customs of the tribal society rather than as objects or deities.
They are not the names of gods and goddesses (Tripuri deities include Garia, Lampra and the fourteen gods of Kharchi puja), nor of house types or garments such as the rignai and risa.
