Tribal Science and Technology


Book Description

Science is in human mind since the very existence of human being. Its knowledge grows with the growth of the human wants, as human wants are unlimited, so as the inventions of science. It justifies the saying that “necessity is the mother of invention”. It is also true that all the sects, communities and tribes of this world are leading their lives somehow scientifically. The sects or communities, whose necessities and expectations are more, their scientific knowledge is more and whose necessity is limited, their scientific knowledge is also limited. Tribes are the indigenous people and they have some indigenous knowledge of science and technology in their daily life. Presence of science is not only noticed in the modern Laboratories and modern industries but also in our daily lives.To know something is ‘Gyan’ (knowledge) and to achieve something is ‘Vigyan’ (Science). For example: to know the presence of ghee in the milk is Gyan, to know the process (technique) how to prepare ghee from milk is Vigyan/Vidya (science/scientific knowledge) and application of this process (scientific knowledge) to the practical aims of ghee preparation is technology. This book contains some aspects of tribal science and technological knowledge.

Proceedings of the World Anthropology Congress 2023 (WAC 2023)


Book Description

This is an open access book.The World Anthropology Congress 2023 intends to explore multiple avenues for global peace and harmony for sustainable development of humankind, particularly of the indigenous, Adivasi and tribal people of the world. It is now well understood that Anthropology as a discipline can lend a powerful voice to non-hegemonic and marginalized cultural perspectives on both Global Peace and Development for ensuring social justice to the tribal and autochthones people. Since Global Peace and Development are multi-layered processes and Anthropology promotes the tradition of multifaceted thinking that ranges from the local to the global and traverses the space in bet ween, the discipline can unveil new dimensions in promoting lasting peace and sustained human development. Further, accumulated scientific evidence proves that many non -violent societies co-existed peacefully as a norm throughout the prehistoric period of the human existence. This indicates that human co-existence and peace were not mere words, but concepts that are integral to the texts of Anthropology. Therefore, deliberations in this Congress will contribute to the processes of Peace and Development of human society at different levels. The proposed World Anthropology Congress 2023 will continue this line of enquiry by playing a crucial role in creating a more contemporary and relevant debate on indigeneity, social justice, and global peace.
