Item description from seller

Language: English. About The Book: In this book, the author explores the rich and vibrant existence of the Wild Races residing in South-Eastern India, emerging from the flat expanse of Chittagong District, now located in Bangladesh, and expanding into a vast region of rugged hills and mountains inhabited by diverse hill tribes. The author thoroughly explores various aspects, including the region's climate, bustling bazars where these tribes exchanged their goods for essential items like salt, spices, and dried fish, typically found in the plains. Additionally, the book provides insights into the local flora and fauna, particularly valuable forest trees and medicinal plants, along with an examination of bamboo and cane varieties and their cultivation techniques, such as the distinctive Jhum cultivation method, which involves slash-and-burn agriculture. Moreover, the author delves into the intricate fabric of community life among these hill tribes, shedding light on their interactions with the British and the exploitation they faced from Hindu mahajan. The book delves into the tribes' origins, often traced back to Burmese roots, exploring their customs, religious beliefs, festivals, attire, marriage ceremonies, social norms, and language.
