Zahmuaka (lit.'To meet a hundred people') was the first Lusei chief in the 16th century. He would establish chieftainship among the Mizos and their descendants. He is also the forefather of most chiefs in the Lushai Hills, India. His sons would establish Lusei dynasties of chiefs and migrate into the Lushai Hills (now Mizoram) over time. Zahmuaka himself, however, lived and died in modern-day Myanmar. His descendants would migrate to Mizoram under Lallula.
