Normally it is believed that the Mizo tribe is a single tribe. But fact is however different. The Mizo tribe is actually not a single tribe but combination of a number of tribes. Correctly speaking it is a group of tribes. The Mizo tribe is a combination of five major tribes such as Lushei, Ralte, Hmar, Paite, and Pawi (or Poi) and eleven minor tribes known under common name Awzia.
