Book Description
This Encyclopaedia Has Been Compiled And Edited To Include Different Aspects Of Indian Tribes. This Includes Comprehensive Account Of The Socio-Cultural Profile And Development Programme Of Tribes Of India. An Attempt Has Been Made To Include Most Of The Tribes From The Different States Of India. Unlike The Tribes Of North, Central And South America Who Were Distinct Population Groups In Terms Of Culture, Race And Religion Than The Invading White Communities Of European Nations, Indian Tribes Were No Different Than The Other Communities Of The Same Geographic Regions Of The Subcontinent. However, Indian Tribes Are Comparatively Small In Number, Economically Extremely Backward, Scattered And Isolated But Culturally They Are In No Way Inferior To Any One Possessing High Traditions, Honesty, Solidarity And Self-Lessness. In Fact The Hindu Culture Owes Greatly Of The Tribal Culture Of India.This Encyclopaedia Will Be Much Useful To Students, Teachers And Scholars Studying Indian Tribes In India And Abroad.

Attention has been paid to the significant aspects of the identity of the primitive tribes. These are mainly statutory positions, surnames, tribe s ethnic identity, distribution of population, family and clan, language and literacy, life cycle and related customs, dress, ornaments, food habits , traditional occupations, religious beliefs, festivals, social change and mobility.These volumes will be useful for bureaucrats, planners, anthropologists, teachers and students in India and abroad. The material on these primitive tribes has deep bearing on micro-study gathered from the writings of the reputed academicians. The Bibliography with regard to these volumes is fairly comprehensive. An effort has been made not to leave any old and new publication without giving it proper recognition in these tribes.Vol. 1 : Encyclopaedia of Primitive Tribes of India, Vol. 2 : Encyclopaedia of Primitive Tribes of India

Book Description
"An Encyclopaedia of Indian Archaeology" is a significant reference work on archaeology in India. It is an authoritative work of permanent value in which the knowledge and expertise of Indian archaeologists from the Archaeological Survey of India, universities and other institutes have been pooled together under the editorship of the late A. Ghosh, former Director-General of the Archaeological Survey of India. The "Encyclopaedia" has been planned in an ambitious manner; it is not merely an alphabetical listing of entries with sketchy information on topics. Volume 1, which deals with certain broad subjects relating to Indian Archaeology, is divided into twenty chapters, alphabetically arranged. Each chapter is further divided into sections and subsections containing independent and self-contained essays. For example, in the chapter on "Cultures," detailed information can be found on various cultures in India; the chapter on "Basis of dating" contains articles on archaeological dating, archaeomagnetic dating, 14C radio-carbon dating, numismatic dating, palaeographic and epigraphic dating, thermoluminescent dating, etc. For those interested in getting further information on the subjects and in looking into the original sources and references, each entry also carries an exhaustive bibliography. Volume II is the Gazetteer. It contains basic data and information on all the explored and excavated sites in India along with reference to published reports and/or notices on each.
