Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

An unspecified cave called Krem Shymblein (Kharpran Daly 2001.02.17 personal communication with Hospital Sutnga and Tippor Pala) is said to lie somewhere in the vicinity of Sakhain village (church: N25°18'55.9”: E092°26'13.9”, ±100 m). ETYMOLOGY: The Khasi -shym- is an article used with negative verbs in the past tense (SINGH, N 1906 : 201) and -blein- resembles a corruption of -mlein- meaning shameless, impudent (SINGH, N 1906: 132).
