Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive account of the history, ethnography, and culture of the Khasi people, who primarily inhabit the mountainous regions of northeast India known as the Khasi and Jaintia Hills. The author, a colonial administrator with decades of experience in the area, draws upon his extensive knowledge and research to present a detailed portrait of this fascinating community. Divided into seven sections, the book covers diverse aspects of Khasi life, including their origins, physical characteristics, social organization, religious beliefs, folklore, linguistic peculiarities, and customs surrounding birth, marriage, and death. The author also examines the legal and administrative systems that govern the Khasi people, highlighting their unique matrilineal social structure and the challenges posed by their close proximity to the plains. The book's significance lies in its meticulous documentation of a rich and diverse culture that has managed to preserve its distinct identity amidst the pressures of modernization. It offers valuable insights into the history, traditions, and resilience of the Khasi people, making it an essential resource for scholars of anthropology, ethnography, and South Asian studies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
