Ao Time Pillar

Ao Naga "Time Pillar"

This clip shows the very interesting monument known as the "Time Pillar" in Mokokchung district, home of the Ao Naga. It is a large tree trunk, carved in fantastic deep relief, with all manner of typical Naga motifs, such as the mithun and warriors, but also a variety of more abstract forms. My apologies for not holding the camera more steadily.
