About The Book: This book delves into the "Descriptive Ethnology of Bengal." Commencing with the North-Eastern Frontier, the author scrutinizes the population, establishing links between Indo-Chinese communities in Assam and ancient Gangetic residents. The narrative traces the Aryan settlement in Assam, the decline of the Kachari dynasty to Shans, the influx of Ko'cch people, and the subsequent governance by Muhammadan rulers. The author categorizes Bengal's non-Aryan tribes into Dravidian and Kolarian divisions, introducing the concept of Hinduized Aborigines. A specific focus is placed on Chota Nagpur tribes, providing an in-depth account of their history, development, and interactions with the British Government, stressing the necessity of a nuanced understanding in governance. About The Author: Edward Tuite Dalton CSI (18151880), a British soldier and anthropologist, played a significant role in Assam and Chota Nagpur. Joining the East India Company in 1835, he served in Assam, tackling tribal unrest. During the 1857 sepoy mutiny, as commissioner of Chota Nagpur, he faced challenges, leading to the Battle of Chatra. Dalton's efforts extended to ethnographic studies, resulting in the "Descriptive Ethnology of Bengal."
