The term "Hill Miri" was given by the British Administration to distinguish between the “Plain Miri” of Assam and the “Nyishi” of Arunachal Pradesh. They speak a Tibeto-Burman language, but the exact origin of their language is disputed. The festival celebrated with enormous pomp and gaiety is , on 6 February. The rituals of these festivals are carried out by the community priests (nyub/nyubu) which include chanting of hymns and sacrificing animals viz. mithun (sobe/sebe), goat, chicken (pork), pig (irri) etc., and serving of local brew (opo) to attendees.

The tribe are agriculturalist and primarily grow crops such as dagam (rice), temi (millet), mekung (cucumber), takie (ginger) and a host of green leafy vegetables.
