The book “Tribal Culture, Customs and Affinities” provides an in-depth examination of the rich and varied cultural tapestry of India's indigenous populations. The book explores the social structures, rituals, and traditions that characterise tribal life and looks at how these things have been maintained and handed down through the years. The book paints a vivid picture of these communities' relationships to nature, spirituality, and the land by highlighting the rituals, celebrations, and belief systems that are essential to their sense of self. In addition, the book explores the connections and similarities between many tribal groups, revealing aspects of their shared cultures while still recognising their uniqueness. It talks about how important kinship, ties to the community, and oral traditions are to the preservation of tribal history. The book also discusses current problems that these tribes are facing, such as the effects of modernisation, culture eroding, and displacement.
