Mokokchung is at about 1,300 m (4,347 ft) and is the home of the Ao Naga tribe. According to legend, the Aos came from Longtrok, which means “six stones”. The British came here in the late 1800s, and later missionaries brought schools. Today it has one of the highest literacy rates in Nagaland, about 84%.
