 Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: Found: A Lost Tribe of Israel
As for the tribe of Manasseh, the Bible says: “So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (that is, Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria), who took the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh into exile.
The idea that some Mizos and folks from some tribes in that region belong to the lost tribe of Manasseh, however, sounds rather farfetched and unlikely to be true.
If the Mizos were descendants of the tribe of Manasseh, researchers would have found in their history vestiges of the practices that resemble some of the religious practices of the Old Testament.
