==Origin==<br />
Luwang was the son of '''Iputhou Pakhangba''' also known as '''Konchin Tukthapa Pakhangpa''' and [[Nula Eebemma Huimuleima]]. He was born inside [[Kangla Palace]], [[Imphal]] at noon where sunlight was somewhat white in colour. He ruled some parts of Kangleipak kingdom for several years.<ref name="paochelsalaitaret.net">{{cite web|url=http://paochelsalaitaret.net/wakoklon.php|title=Wakoklon Heelel Thilel Salai Ama-Ilon Pukok Puya|website=Paochelsalaitaret.net|accessdate=13 November 2018}}</ref><br />
[[Luwang Punsiba]] was one of the great king amongst Luwang clan, during his reign [[Hiyang Tanaba|Hiyang Hiren]] was most popular in Kangleipak.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.google.co.in/search?client=ms-android-xiaomi&ei=CErqW63wMoy48QWG57nIBA&ins=false&q=Luwang+Ningthou&oq=Luwang+Ningthou&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-serp.12..0i22i30j33i160l2.1359876.1372583..1374464...4.0..4.393.5784.2-20j2......0....1.......5..0j0i71j35i39j46i131j0i131j0i67j0i8i13i30j0i13i30j46i13j0i13.AFcduRXey_Q|title=Luwang Ningthou - Google Search|website=Google.co.in|accessdate=13 November 2018}}</ref><br />

==Yumnaks of Luwang==<br />
The following are list of [[Yumnak]]s<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Yumnam|first=Aboy|date=2020-11-12|title=Compounding in Meetei Surnames|url=http://www.languageinindia.com/oct2013/aboymeiteisurnames.pdf|journal=Language in India|volume= 13:10|pages=29–50|issn=1930-2940|archive-url=http://www.languageinindia.com|archive-date=2020-11-12|quote=All the Meetei surnamesoriginated from the seven clansof Meetei.There are altogether 716 surnames in Meetei society (Ayekpam, 1993).

Ningthouja, the ruling Salai, has 125 Sageis, including Kanghujam, the lone Sagei of Ningthouja Ariba; the Angom 62, Khuman 67, the Luwang 58, the Moirang 67, the Khaba-Nganba 21, and the Chengleis (Sarang Leisangthem) 35. Thus there are all altogether 465 Sageis of the original Meiteis belonging to the seven Salais. However, Prof Gangmumei contended that there is a discrepancy in the total number of Sageis or Yumnaks as given by him with that of Hudson and Ibohal are 448 and 712. Each of these Sageis is descended from a common ancestor, the founder of the Salai (Salai-apokpa).|access-date=2020-11-12|website=www.thepeopleschronicle.in}}</ref><br />
