Moirang Kangleirol

The Moirang kangleirol is a collection of history, literature, folklore, mythology, legends, and other accounts from the ancient kingdom of Keke Moirang.

History
Keke Kangla, the capital city of ancient Moirang, functioned not only as a center of political administration but also as a site for religious practices. People partook in annual sacred ceremonies conducted in the city. The Moirang Ningthourol (a genealogy of the rulers of Moirang), was meticulously calculated using various ancient manuscripts, including the royal chronicle Cheitharol Kumbaba.

Myth and legend
The Moirang Shayon, an epic cycle of the seven incarnations of a God and a Goddess under the guidance of Lord Thangching forms the foundation of the Moirang Kangleirol.

The Moirang kangleirol encompasses a rich tapestry of accounts, featuring a diverse array of deities and supernatural beings. Of particular significance is the divine harvesting festival Thangjing Loutaba, in which the nine gods, collectively known as the Laibungthous, and the nine goddesses, known as the Laibenthous, actively participate. This festival serves as a sacred celebration within the mythological tradition of Moirang Kangleirol.
