Answers
Garo houses are built by the members of the Garo tribe, using locally available resources such as bamboo, timber and cane. These houses serve a variety of purposes, including serving as granaries or bachelor’s apartments. Built using hand tools during the dry months, the houses are found predominantly in the West Garo Hills district, in Rongram region, Sadolpara village, and Sasatgre village.
Each Nokmong/ Nokachik house has a living room called dongrama, that has a fireplace. The construction of the fireplace is done very carefully since the whole house is built of highly inflammable material. The centre of the fireplace has a mud plinth, and a smoking shelf placed above it. This shelf is designed to hold baskets and food items warm. Sanitary facilities such as toilets are attached to the living room. The other rooms include bedrooms, kitchen and a porch, on which women pound rice.
