Abstract:

Bamboo is regarded as the ‘green gold’ or ‘poor man’s timber’ and is one of the highest producing global renewable natural resources. It is a versatile plant possessing more than 1500 uses and forms an indispensable component in the socio-economy of the rural ecosystem in Northeast India. Bamboo groves or patches are observed to be situated in the two hill districts of Assam, namely Dima Hasao and Karbi Anglong. The present study aimed at understanding the socio-economic dependency of the Karbi tribe on bamboo resources as well as to document the utilization of bamboo in the cultural festivals

Abstract:

Emergency food plants are wild food plants that substitute staple food and are often referred as famine foods. These are nutritionally very rich and substitute conventionally eaten foods and are capable of fulfilling nutritional demand in many cases. Wild plants constitute major components of food basket of the Karbis. The importance of indigenous food plants from nutritional point of view in Karbi Anglong is often overlooked.

Abstract:

Understanding landscape change starts with understanding what motivates farmers to transition away from one system, shifting cultivation, into another, like plantation crops. Here we explored the resource allocation strategies of the farmers of the Karbi tribe in Northeast India, who practice a traditional shifting cultivation system called jhum. Through a participatory modelling framework, we co-developed a role-playing game of the local farming system. In the game, farmers allocated labour and cash to meet household needs, while also investing in new opportunities like bamboo, rubber and tea

Karaism is a Jewish sect that emerged in the Middle Ages and became the name of a Turkish tribe in time.

This feature naturally causes many differences. One of the main differences observed is the rituals for an individual in the death transition period, an important phase of human life.

The word Karaim is derived from the Aramaic-Hebrew kara meaning to read with the plural suffix im. In Hebrew, םיארק karaim means “those who read the scriptures”. Over time, Karaite became the name of a Turkish tribe. Historical data indicates that the Karaites, descendants of the Khazar state, adhered to the Karai sect of Judaism, which recognized only the Torah. Consequently, due to their adoption of a distinct belief system, it is natural for the Karaites to exhibit differences in the rituals and customs associated with the “childbirth” phase, an important transitional period in human life.

Abstract:

Assam, the mother state of Northeast, is the land of tribal communities where more than twenty-three (23) tribal communities have been living from ancient times. Bodo, Karbi, Tiwa, Mising, Deori, Rabha, Dimasa, Hajong etc. are the major tribal communities of Assam. This paper tries to explore the complex process of defining self-identity of the Deori tribe living in Assam, a state of north-east India. The Deori tribe is an indigenous tribal community that have experienced many historical, sociocultural, and political changes during 60-70 years, thus shaping the sense of identity. The approach

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to look into the evolving trends in the landholding system of the Karbi tribe in Assam, India, as well as the nature of the customary laws that govern their land. This study challenged the Western notion of land ownership, which frequently promotes individual ownership and private ownership. The present study supported the idea of tribes’ customary rights over land management and communal property. Qualitative data were collected through field observations and oral interviews. This study employed content and discourse analysis methods to interpret the materials gat

Abstract Introduction Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) have been an essential source for food, medicine, and handicraft products among the indigenous populations living in forested areas for millennia. Scientific research on the restoration of the importance of NTFPs and their value addition could potentially guide the development of new nutraceutical products in the future. The present study aims to investigate the diversity of non-timber forest products of the Karbi Anglong District of Assam in Northeast India.

Abstract Background This paper discusses the social dimension of gastronomy, such as folk beliefs regarding avoidance and prescriptions during the stages of menstruation and pregnancy. Cooking and eating are imbued with special meanings, but how they are related to an individual’s multiple identities, such as menstruating and pregnant women, and how these idioms and ideologies affect food choice negotiated through folk beliefs are discussed. Do food prescriptions contribute to nutrition? Looking for these answers, the present study was undertaken in two blocks densely populated by Karbi tribe

Abstract:

Today salt is the most desired and routinely added major food ingredient used in many food preparation and food processing technologies as well as in many therapeutic purposes. The taste of salt or saltiness is universally accepted by the human society since time immemorial. There are many literatures describing about the modern human civilizations obtaining salt from different sources to satisfy their gustatory senses. Likewise the Karbi tribe, a hilly tribe of Assam, India, have been observed practicing extraction of a liquid condiment as salt-substitute from different plants and plant parts

The processes of nature-culture interaction and resulting landscapes in an area form fertile fields for geographical research. The present study is an attempt to analyse the reciprocal relation between people and nature in a tribal village environment of the Brahmaputra Valley, Assam. Based on intensive field survey and interviews with the inhabitants, the study reveals that the human-environment relationship in the village is still mutually helpful and more or less sustainable. However, perceptible changes have occurred in the traditional cordial relationship between the people and their envi

Like the concept of society, the notion of culture is widely used in the sociological, anthropological and historical study of sport. It encourages the researcher and student to consider the meanings, symbols, rituals and power relations at play within any particular cultural setting. Traditional sports and game

Whether traditional or modern, the pursuit of self-governance is fundamental to an Indigenous community’s ability to advance its collective interests and preserve its identity. The Karbi (one of the earliest hill tribes of Assam, India; previously known as Mikir) have both traditional and modern administrative bodies that coexist. The Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council, a contemporary democratic institution, relies on traditional institutions when making judgements about customary laws and regulations. In exchange, the Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council supports traditional Karbi institutions, fos

Reproductive Health is one of the significant issues today as it is a pivotal part of general health. Reproductive health was defined in International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) as “the state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, in all matters relating to the reproductive system and to its functions and processes”(ICPD Programme of Action, paragraph 7.2). Worldwide maternal deaths fell by almost 44 percent from 1990 to 2015, but about 830 mothers still die daily in delivery cases or as a result of pregnancy
