About the Book

The book has been evolved on the basis of long term research spread over 3-4 decades jointly by Prof. A. Aiyappan and Prof. K. Mahadevan. It is focussing on a classical and rare community which characterises several fascinating features. No other Tribal Community in the world has several complex, colourful and rare features like that of the Kurichiyas. They include the universal practice of Matriliny, extensive and massive joint family, which have become rare in the world today. Their elderly persons live up to 100 years with good health and are able to work. They have no major health problems unlike the educated and modern elites like those even in the developed countries. It is.a valuable lesson for experts on health and for people in general. Women and elderly, live happily without discrimination and neglect. Infant mortality is very less, thanks to their wonderful personal hygiene and environmental sanitation. Their staple food of ragi and wild meat make their food balanced and healthy too. It is a mystery, how this illiterate tribe follows many scientific life styles with least problems of all kinds. Poverty and beggary are unknown to them. Of course, their economic self-sufficiency -has reduced due to exploitation in recent times. Their collective farming, joint ownership of landed and other properly, equitable distribution of food, and all other facilities, besides cooperative work in the field, forest and rearing of animals and hunting too make them socialistic. Of course, they are highly religious people believing in primitive religion. Their honesty and integrity are well known and rare in modern society. They have social and economic security for one and all. There are ten chapters of this book. Among them matriliny and family organisation, largest joint family, and commune life, constitute the classical features of this tribe. Their prolonged longevity, healthy life, better status for women are fascinating features for emulation even by the modern people. Their ecology, economy, and social change besides the high fertility are lessons for development administrators and planners for promoting new models of development without ecological disaster. Lastly the experiences of successful tribal rehabilitation given here make a new viable model for replicating it elsewhere.
