RYNGKO 1 (Krem)

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) is said to give access to an uninspiring hole / sinkhole, which, at a first glance, gives not only the impression of being too tight 3 m down but also seems to have formed along joints and, perhaps, is not worth a visit (Jarratt 2003.02.19 Mss: Cave Log 2003: 19/2/03; Jarratt 2003.03.11 Mss: Krem Ryngko 1). ETYMOLOGY: The Khasi -ryngkoh- (verb) means to caper (SINGH, N 1920: 60) and is synonymous with ”rynsied” (jump, caper, spring upon). Little doubt remains that Anthony 'Tony' R Jarratt (2003.03.11 Mss: Krem Ryngko 1-5) construed a pantomimed movie pirate when translating the cave name -Krem Ryngko- (note 1) as One-Legged Man Cave. SITUATION: The unspecified cave entrance to Krem Ryngko 1 lies not only in an unidentified setting and in unidentified spatial relations to the other four caves and sinkholes, which share the cave name Krem Ryngko but alsoin an unidentified location somewhere at an unknown distance at the side of one of the 4WD tracks (Shaktiman tracks), which lead from an unknown starting point in Shnongrim village for an unidentified distance into an unspecified direction to an unknown place in an unidentified area which, according to the recorded GPS readings, lies ESE of Shnongrim (Anthony 'Tony' R Jarratt 2003.03.11 Mss: Krem Ryngko 1-5) but then. according to Anthony 'Tony' R Jarratt (2003.02.19 Mss Cave Log 2003: 19/2/03), NE of Shnongrim village.in an unidentified location somewhere at an unknown distance at the side of one of the 4WD tracks (Shaktiman tracks), which lead from an unknown starting point in Shnongrim village for an unidentified distance into an unspecified direction to an unknown place in an unidentified area which, according to the recorded GPS readings, lies ESE of Shnongrim (Anthony 'Tony' R Jarratt 2003.03.11 Mss: Krem Ryngko 1-5) but then. according to Anthony 'Tony' R Jarratt (2003.02.19 Mss Cave Log 2003: 19/2/03), NE of Shnongrim village.
