The Miji, also known by the names of Sajolang and Damai, inhabit the districts of West Kameng, East Kameng and a minuscule region of Kurung Kumey in Arunachal Pradesh, India. Their population of 37,000 are found near the lower parts of the sub-Himalayan hills bordering Assam; they speak the Sajalong language. The word Miji is derived from two distinct words 1) Mai means fire and 2) ji meaning Giver. The word/name came into being after the Aka ( Hrusso) community regarded the Sajolang/Dammai people for their gracious help during the past (pre-historic period).

  • Миджи, также дамаи — народ на северо-востоке Индии. Проживает главным образом в округах Западный Каменг и Восточный Каменг индийского штата Аруначал-Прадеш. По данным на 2001 год численность этноса составляет около 6500 человек. Язык народа относится к тибето-бирманской семье. Традиционная религия представляет собой анимистические верования, в наши дни часть миджи исповедует христианство.
