The Battle of Kikrüma was a battle fought on 11 and 12 February 1851 in Northeast India between the warriors of Kikrüma village (of present-day Nagaland) and the forces of the British East India Company. The battle, in which Naga warriors of the Chakhesang Nagas armed with only spears and bows and arrows fought against British soldiers armed with rifles, was one of the bloodiest battles fought in the hills of Northeast India. While the battle is not very well-known in other parts of India or the world, the battle is remembered through oral stories of the local people and has been written about by a British officer Major John Butler.
