Chyebassa

Chaibasa (the Chyebassa of early records) is a town in West Singhbhum district, Jharkhand, the headquarters of the Kolhan country in the Chota Nagpur hills. It became a British administrative centre among the Ho and Munda peoples after the pacification of the region. Within the Bengal Presidency it served as a post town, and its pre-1854 markings trace the mail of the Chota Nagpur uplands.
