The '''Ralte ''' were mostly found scattered in the northern part of today's [[Aizawl district|Aizawl]], [[Kolasib district|Kolasib]] and [[Serchhip district|Serchhip]], [[India]] in the past. About 200 years ago the Raltes lived mostly near [[Champhai]]. Mangkhaia was an important Ralte chief there. Mangkhaia was the son of Mangthawnga, a descendant of Lûtmânga. He was killed in course of events following his clash with a Lusei chief. [[Mangkhaia]]'s memorial stone has been famous throughout these hills. The Raltes zealously maintained their individual identity and resisted absorption into the folds of the Mizos. Most Ralte clans do not specify their tribe and carry on with Ralte and mostly use [[Mizo language|Mizo ṭawng]] also sometimes known as Duhlian ṭawng. But, in the present day, as they are one of the fore founders and pillar of the Mizo ethnic identity, they are found settled in every part of Mizoram today.<br />
