Dormitories, known as murung, are structures where the boys are trained to be men by their fathers. Although the girls do not have dormitories like the boys, they sleep in one big, single house, with the care of an old lady. Until 1991, human headhunting was practiced among the Naga people, and both the government and missionaries have taken steps to ban the practice of headhunting, which is now restricted to animals.
