waiting to know more about the festival.
happy solung
wish some minyong friend could help me putting more about the Solung Festival.
hai friends.though late,let me tell you why we are celebrating ‘solung’.it is an agriculture festival of adi for rich harvesment.it’s time to pay back gratitude to mother goddes “kine nane”.it’s believe that a different creature come on the earth in the form of round shape during evolution of life.the tani people of ‘sitking kedeng’ find it difficult to understand what exactly that was.later on,they call people from around the world to investigate it.one brave man called ‘dadi somi’ pierce the creature with arrow.blood which come out from creature form gigantic shape .people christened it as ‘eso’ or ‘mithun’.so,to commemorate the arrival of ‘eso’,tani people started to celebrate ‘solung’.so,’solung’ is celebrated for rich harvestment ,prosperity of human being and to wel come arrival of mithun….
