Abstract
Based on textual interpretation and an analysis of the geo-spatial,
socio-cultural conditions the paper examines the relative position of
Lepchas in Eastern Nepal and in Eastern Himalaya (Sikkim and
Darjeeling) while dealing with the question whether the Lepchas could
be included in the Kirata group of people.
