An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) was said to give access to an unspecified cave (Kharpran Daly, B D 2004.07.18 letter -Here are some more names of caves …- dated 18th July, 2004). ETYMOLOGY: Unknown. The origin and meaning of the Khasi cave name -Krem Ponging- (Kharpran Daly 2004.07.18 Mss) appears to combine the Khasi word -pong- (verb) for to bore, to make a hole (note 1) either with -ing- (verb), to be burnt, to catch fire (note 2), -ing- (noun), a bone (note 3) or -iïng-, a house (note 4).
