SHERPA TRADITION(sherpa Clans)
Ru is a Sherpa word meaning bones. The male line tramsmits the ru (bones) and so the father’s lineage determines one’s clan membership. Four main clans originally came from Kham, in eastern Tibet, to Solu-Khumbu:the Thimi, Thakthowa, Chawa, and Lama. Each clan gave rise to several brother-clans and comtinuous migration has brought many new clans in to the area.

Only the first arrivals, the Thimi, came via Rongshar and Rolwaling.
The Paldorjie clan gave rise to the Salakha, Dhag Shingto, Kambache and Goparma. A clan called Michen-topa in Kham, but Thakthowa here gave rise to the Gole, GArtsa, Pinasa, Pankarma, Sharpa penagpa and Shari-topa brother clans. From the Lama clan came the Serwa and Gombawa brother clans. The chawa remained a single clan that originated from a lama and his family that came from Tibet about 360 years ago.
Other clans that came to Khumbu more recently are Chu-sharwa, Murmin, Lhukpa, Nawa, Shangku, Zongnagpa, and Mendawa.Since then, many people have continued coming from Tibet and other parts of Nepal. Newarts, Chetris, Tamangs, and blackmiths (Kamis) have moved up from the lower valleys of Nepal. Though these people are from different areas and religions, they often pray to the Buddha while here in Khumbu.

Some Important days in Sherpa Tradition
Some Important days in Sherpa Tradition
Sherpas follow the Tibetan calendar. People offer tsog, torma on the eighth, tenth, fifteenth, and thirtieth days of the months. Each of these days is for each form of Buddha. The eight is for Sangye Menla, the Medicine Buddha, on the tenth Guru Rinpoche returns to earth, fifteenth day is when Opame, the Buddha of infinite light, visits and the thirtieth day is the Buddha's auspicious day. Other special days, such as Saga Dawa, the fourth month, is Buddha's month. The seventh day of this month is the birth of the Buddha and the fifteenth is his enlightenment. Drugpa tse shi, fourth day of the sixth month, observes the first day Buddha taught. The 22nd day of the ninth month celebrates the return of Buddha to earth after teaching his mother in the deity's place.
Most of the rites are performed in between the first to fifteenth of the month, dawa hyarngo, and these days are considered auspicious for other ceremonies also. Religious rites are performed during this period. The remaining fifteen days from chhewa churuk to namgang (six¬teenth to twenty-ninth, or dawa marngo or waning moon) of the month are taken as inauspicious days.

Yeti Footprints found at Khumbu
Himalayan News Service
A team of explorers has arrived in the capital with an exciting story of finding footprints of yeti near the base camp of Mount Everest, at Khumbu.“We are happy to say that we have found footprints of yeti. And the snowman is no more a legend for us now,” Joshua Gates, the team leader of the expedition of the American television channel Destination Truth, told the media today.Showing the model of the footprint, collected at the site, he added that some scientific research would continue in the US regarding its authenticity and other phases of exploration for further studies.The team, consisting of 9 Americans and 14 Nepalis, left Kathmandu on 24 November and arrived here today after competing the expedition. After finding the footprints, they chartered a helicopter and directly flew back to the capital.He said that the team found the footprints when it was returning from Khumbu by the confluence of Ghettekhola and Dudhkoshi rivers, near Monju village at a height of 2,850 metres.It was Tul Bahadur Rai, assistant guide of the team, who first spotted the footprint by the riverbank.“It was the night of November 28. I cried in excitement when I saw the footprints. I called all the members and they took photographs and also made a model of the footprint, after they were convinced that it indeed was a footprint,” he told this daily.He also said that one of the prints was around 12 inches long and others were smaller because the ground was not even and the prints were not clear.This is not the first time, footprints of yeti, a species of hairy, humpbacked and dark giant biped ape, were found in Nepal’s Himalayan valleys. In 1925 a Greek photographer, NA Tombazi, claimed that he had spotted an ape-like creature walking in the valley near Mt Everest. Another noted explorer who claimed to have seen yeti was the father of Tenzing Norgay Sherpa, the first person to climb Everest.Similarly, British mountaineers Eric Shipton and Michael Ward found the yeti footprints in 1951 near the border area.Even Sir Edmund Hillary and his Sherpa guide, Tenzing Norgay, found giant footprints on the way up the top of Mount Everest, in 1953.
