An unspecified, locally known cave called »Krem Synrang« (Brian D. Kharpran Daly 1996.03.17 personal communication) is said to be situated somewhere at the base of the cliff below the village of Laitkynsew (±250 m N25°13'00": E091°39'30” WGS84). IDENTITY: Compare Krem –>Mawjymbuin, Laitkynsew. ETYMOLOGY: The Khasi "ka synrang" (noun) is not only the word for »a cave« (in the sence of rock shelter) and »a coping of a rock« (SINGH, N 1906: 216) but also signifies »a nest« (BLAH, E 2007: 198) in the sense of a hiding place where animals dwell.
