Among the Angami Nagas any member of a village “may choose to leave his fields untilled for one year and cannot be compelled to grow his crops during the next, but after that, if illness or idleness prevent him from overtaking the work, his village insists on the fields being let” (Prain, ‘Angami Nagas,’ in Revue coloniale internationale, v. 484).
