Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.:
Taken from Chapter 5: A country of villages Community living An Indian village is a close-knit community. The homes are usually clustered together around a village square. From here the farmers walk to their fields every day and the fishermen head out to catch fish in nearby waters. Most village families have lived in the same village for countless generations. Each generation passes on the family's skills, knowledge, and land to its children. Most villagers live off the land, but in larger villages artisans such as weavers, potters, shopkeepers, and smiths provide services necessary for the well-being of the community. Farmers sell their produce, and vendors sell their wares at busy open-air markets called bazaars.
