Other Indians : Essays on Pastoralists and Prehistoric Tribal People
Language: English
Published by Three Essays Collective, 2004
ISBN 10: 8188789194 ISBN 13: 9788188789191
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Contents Introduction. 1. Hunter Gatherer and early agriculturist archaeological evidence for contact. 2. Our tribal past. 3. A Chalcolithic village in a famine belt. 4. Pastoralism as an issue in historical research. The essays in this volume are an attempt to tease out from the scant archaeological (and to some extent historical) sources available some information on certain aspects of rural societies in the past mobility subsistence from animal herding symbiosis between crop production and animal rearing situating hunters and gatherers and the importance of forest as integral to rural life rather than the dichotomous other of the field or village. There is also an attempt to bring out the ways in which tribal society continuously misrepresented in academia today laid the foundations of many aspects of Indian civilization in the remote past. 109 pp.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. This slim volume is an attempt to rouse the interest of students and non-specialists in the early civilization of the Indus valley and adjoining regions of Pakistan and India. The challenges of archaeological interpretation are discussed, together with maps, site plans and illustrations of artefacts, but the evidence is presented in social terms rather than in a technical way. In an attempt to cast an overall perspective, the Indus civilization is presented in the context of contemporary cultural development in South Asia as well as Western and Central Asia. The third edition of this volume included references to new ideas on the Indus civilization and to excavations at a small but significant site. This revised and updated fourth edition contains additional material on Dholavira and the harnessing of flash-floods.

Hardcover. Condition: New. This is a study of technology as self-help endeavor in the home and the provisioning of the household; as work in the rural workshop that supplies pots or iron tools for the village; and as techniques mastered in the urban workshop feasible not in simple tribal villages but when new production institutions emerge with the development of a political hierarchy. It travels from the agricultural field to the building of the home (with its food-processing and storage facilities), to urban water supply techniques and transport mechanisms, to the use of stone, bronze and iron for tools and weapons. A glimpse is afforded of the difference between the making of pottery by hand and the use of the potter's wheel. The social circumstances required of pottery production are in turn contrasted with those required of metallurgy. The whole is based on the archaeological evidence of the Neolithic to Iron Age cultures of South Asia, and concurrently, on observations of some technological processes followed by villagers today. The book asks if it is the nature of tools available that could have made possible the use of materials such as certain semi-precious stones or ivory. Which were the craft technologies that depended on bronze tools in the Indus cities? Else, it may have been horse-riding that prompted chiefs of southern India to sponsor the production of new kinds of iron weapons. It is, besides, possible that the charcoal requirements of early iron-smelting and forging are connected with localized deforestation, and that this had a role to play in the organization and dispersal of the industry. Why were masonry wells so rare after the Indus Valley civilization? Why is glass production known in the Bronze Age of Western Asia but in the Iron Age of South Asia? In what economic circumstances did people begin to use wheeled transport? Technology is not viewed here as a self-generating phenomenon. Instead, puzzles are explained by social and economic factors such as the nature of the work group and the resultant production process, and by political structures as well.

As an archaeologist Shereen Ratnagar has been long involved in studying the enigma of early kin-organized small-scale and non-specialized societies which lack private landed-property and are free of a money economy; societies that we call tribal Having conducted ethno-archaeological research amongst tribal people in eastern Gujarat she spent a few months living with them to investigate how in spite of their miniscule land holdings they are able to raise crops regularly year after year Far from being abject or primitive tribal people schedule their subsistence in a rational way which is diversified in more ways than one and families are self-sufficient to a considerable extent That households think years ahead is also abundantly clear from their provisions for the storage of food Being Tribal attempts to define tribal society traces tribal migrations in history and examines their modes of agricultural production This book also comes to the conclusion that tribal culture is robust and that Indian society owes it to the tribal population-repeatedly displaced and marginalized in the interests of the powerful-to give them full scope to live out their destinies in their own way.
