text: (53) They have the tradition to have come from the plains, migrated up the Dikhu, settled at Chongwe, then went to Hangnyu and from there came to Oting.
text: The Chang and the Konyak are one clan. Before Chongwe they settled at Angphan (a Konyak village near the Chang country). (The Kongan men come from Lang-pang-kon-leng in the Ao country). Ang-phan is on the same mountain as Yin-yu-shang.
