Yimchunger is one of the Naga tribes of Nagaland, India. According to the Yimchunger tradition, the tribe emerged at a village called Moru, and then came to the Jure village.The Yimchungers and the Khiamungans are believed to have migrated to the present-day Nagaland from Upper Burma as one group, in one wave. They separated into two groups at the Moru village. The musical instruments of the Yimchungers include simple log drums, trumpets and flutes, similar to that of the Angamis. The traditional dress of the Yimchungers includes colorful cane-made headgear decorated with hair and bird feathers.
