Three Thevo, one in each khel. The three khels came from 3 different places. Vezemi khel came from Kulasu. Seratsumi came from Cheswesumi and Supunomi came from Zukoronomi. That was the big Sema site where as tradition says was a Sema village of 700 houses, from which most of the Sema speaking Angamis [came]. |

In Sagazumi bits of dried meat hang in the porch of the Thevo's house. They were left from the feast held last year when the Thevo's house was rebuilt. As nothing can be removed from the Thevo's house, they are left there until they rot away. In Thevo's village they are allowed to take away the meat at house-building. |
