    Abstract

    Tribal societies are an example of a strong social structure built upon the foundation of tradition. Their house forms is closely linked to various aspects of their belief system, value system and social system-thus creating a harmonious environment. The Khasis of Meghalaya are one such tribe. This study is based on the premise that houses, being a human product of pronounced practical character, have a particular ability to show how the values and the cultural traditions give meaning to the daily life through the process of cultural symbolisation. The daily life has a meaning which transcends the immediate situation and thus form part of a cultural and historical continuity (Norberg-Schulz 1963).
