Description

About The Book: Henry Harkness's account of the aboriginal race inhabiting the summit of the Neilgherry Hills, also known as the Blue Mountains of Coimbatore, provides a detailed description of the Toda people. Harkness describes them as a distinct, indigenous tribe with unique cultural practices, attire, and social structure. The Todas are noted for their pastoral lifestyle, primarily herding buffalo and producing dairy products. Their customs, language, and religious rituals are distinct from those of neighboring tribes, highlighting their rich cultural heritage and adaptation to the mountainous environment
